Sheet Melkiorri not completely “unnatural” – it uses along with plastic and silk. In silk concluded extracted from conventional plant chloroplasts. Synthetic design should renew the life of chloroplasts, as well as prevent them from clotting. As a result, the artificial sheet should not only perform all the functions of a conventional leaf plants, but last long enough.

Unfortunately, there is a list of experimental design. Its creators are busy at the time of the test, but because of the characteristics of the invention is reported quite a bit. Not known yet no term of “life” artificial plants, nor how much carbon dioxide it is able to process.
