So this is a picture from a Galapagos trip that we took with some wastewater treatment engineers they purify wastewater.

The dome has an incredible amount of water that washes off of it, as well as wastewater.

We can apply this to wastewater treatment plants to clean up our rivers and other natural resources.

In those days, Japan's rapid economic growth brought discharge of factory and household wastewater that polluted rivers.

And it mentions, for instance, that cotton is very resistant to textile dye about 60 percent washes off into wastewater.

That's bioprocessing, you know that's bio assisted technology using an organism to do your wastewater treatment is an old, old technology called domestication.

It has to substantially eliminate emissions of ammonia, nutrients, pathogens, heavy metals, odors, and have zero discharge of wastewater to ground or surface waters.

We'd have a water treatment system treating wastewater, turning that into fresh water and generating energy from the solids using just plants and micro organisms.

And all the sort of excess freshwater wastewater is filtered organically into the landscape, gradually transforming the desert island into sort of a green, lush landscape.

We know, because in the mid 19th century, wonderful Victorian engineers installed systems of sewers and wastewater treatment and the flush toilet, and disease dropped dramatically.

Victoria's Secret they, because of their CEO, who's aware of this, in China formed a joint venture with their dye works to make sure that the wastewater would be properly taken care of before it returned to the groundwater.

So, farming based on how a prairie builds soil, ranching based on how a native ungulate herd actually increases the health of the range, even wastewater treatment based on how a marsh not only cleans the water, but creates incredibly sparkling productivity.

Imagine that we build an enclosure where we put it just underwater, and we fill it with wastewater and some form of microalgae that produces oil, and we make it out of some kind of flexible material that moves with waves underwater, and the system that we're going to build, of course, will use solar energy to grow the algae, and they use CO2, which is good, and they produce oxygen as they grow.
