“HOPE FOR CHANGE”<\/strong><\/h5>\n

“Do you ever get the feeling that the world is unraveling before our eyes? Wars, natural disasters, energy crises, climate emergencies, pandemics, inflation \u2013 the list goes on. It’s a constant barrage of distressing news,” remarks ProSieben host Thore Sch\u00f6lermann<\/a><\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

However, a far more powerful catalyst than succumbing to the admittedly daunting challenges is hope. “Hope ignites a thirst for the novel and unknown. Because what if this very situation we find ourselves in is, in fact, a colossal opportunity?”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

An opportunity to do certain things better? This is precisely what the talk show “Hope For Change” delves into, with a particular emphasis on uncovering “positive developments and prospects for the future” (Source<\/a><\/strong><\/em>). “What if there are technologies and individuals already equipped with precisely what we require? Isn’t it time we started a conversation about it?”<\/p>\n

That’s precisely what Thore Sch\u00f6lermann set in motion. On September 19th, “HOPE FOR CHANGE – THE TALK” took place at the lofty elevation of nearly 3,000 meters on the Zugspitze, Germany’s highest television studio. As a part of the “#OneTomorrow Climate News” and the ProSieben Green Seven Week initiatives, an exhilarating talk show featuring experts unfolded. The message of this event, a prologue to the upcoming Alpine Climate Summit<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, resonated clearly with all participants: “In the midst of crises and disasters, there is ample room for innovation and positive transformation” (Source<\/a><\/strong><\/em>). \u00a0Hosted by Thore Sch\u00f6lermann, the spotlight was firmly on exploring solutions (Source<\/a><\/strong><\/em>).<\/p>\n<\/div>

We are delighted to share that we, represented by our founder Peter S\u00e4nger, had the honor of participating in this year’s Green Seven Week and the enlightening talk show “Hope For Change.”<\/p>\n

Alongside Frank B\u00f6ttcher<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (Chairman of the German Meteorological Society), Patricio Hetfleisch<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (Tirol Tourism Board, GRETA – Green Travel Alternative), Philip Krammer<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (Founder of Terawind), Walter Kreisel<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (Founder of neoom), J\u00f6rg zu Dohna<\/a> <\/strong><\/em>(Pyreg GmbH), and Gabriel Baunach<\/a><\/strong><\/em> (Author), the event highlighted solutions and focused on key themes. Among these themes, one particularly centered on groundbreaking innovations and technologies, emphasizing their existing potential to make a significant impact on addressing climate change (Source<\/a><\/strong><\/em>).<\/p>\n

On the talk show, Peter S\u00e4nger presented our air purification concepts centered around moss<\/a><\/strong><\/em>. The regenerative moss filters – CityTree<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, CityBreeze<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, and WallBreeze<\/a><\/strong><\/em> – are designed to combat heat islands and pollution hotspots in urban areas. These specialized, high-performance plants offer targeted solutions for both indoor and outdoor environments, delivering impressive and quantifiable results.\u00a0Moss has the ability to capture and metabolize fine particles and cool the environment through water evaporation.By harnessing these natural properties, we’ve pushed the boundaries using state-of-the-art IoT technology and innovative ventilation and irrigation techniques. Remarkably, these systems require just about 50 watts of electrical power to generate 6,500 watts of cooling power, equivalent to the environmental benefits of planting 80-100 new street trees. Moreover, their air particle filtration capacity is approximately ten times more effective than traditional greenery. On scorching summer days, the moss surface can be up to 10\u00b0C cooler than its immediate surroundings, making it a game-changer for urban climate control.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The moss modules are integrated into various multifunctional fresh air concepts. They enable diverse applications, including the integration of traditional green elements for biodiversity<\/a><\/strong><\/em> promotion, analog and digital information displays, seating, water tanks<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, as well as networking technology or charging infrastructure. Due to their high evaporation capacity, they can also play a role in rainwater management strategies<\/a><\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

“We are bringing nature back to the city – and making ‘cool and clean air available to everyone’ with ‘our moss filters,’ as stated by our CEO Peter S\u00e4nger (Source<\/a><\/strong><\/em>).”<\/p>\n

These moss filters make a visible and measurable, local, and immediate contribution to more sustainability and a healthy, liveable city.<\/p>\n<\/div>
