So! This is a perfect case study in situations where you should be wary of misinformation.

Take a moment and ask yourself, a project like this requires a lot of time, money and dedication of resources, why would scientists dedicate that time to something that could just be done by a tree?

The answer is they wouldn't. So that means this claim requires further investigation!

This project is called LIQUID 3, and it's not meant for cities with wide open spaces, it's meant for cities like Belgrade in Serbia. These cities are densely populated and heavily polluted, to the point where pollution actually chokes out current trees and makes creating green spaces difficult.

Liquid 3 was a PhD scientists answer to these problems. The microalgae tank is intended for spaces where you either:

Don't have enough space to plant full trees, or

Don't have enough time to plant trees and wait for them to grow up.

The tank is extremely efficient when you consider the amount of space needed compared to the amount of CO2 turned into oxygen. The tank can operate throughout the winter. And most importantly, it can be quickly set up in areas that desperately need relief from air pollution NOW not in 10 years when trees are done growing. Children currently suffocating on polluted air can't wait for trees to grow, they need to be taken care of now, and Liquid 3 is one of the ways to take care of them. Depending on the species of microalgea used, a number have shown a pretty amazing capacity to pull heavy metals out of the air which is something trees can get choked up by.

The tanks aren't just tanks either! Liquid 3 have solar panels placed on top, they have lighting and mobile phone charging, and they work as public benches. The designers of it want to encourage green spaces where there's room, but where there isn't room or time, Liquid 3 can step in. Realistically, this isn't a replacement for trees. It's replacing boring metal city benches with new, cooler benches that also clean the air (and have at least some heating during the winter).

Not only that, but the microalgea that grows is native to Serbia and all that microalgea has a ton of great uses! It makes for great fertilizer, compost, wastewater treatment, cleaner biofuels and even for helping create new tanks for further air purification. They only require a quick algae divide once a month, and the produced algae can be carted off to where ever it's needed. This makes them effective solutions for areas that can't sustain complex installations.

So yeah, there's actually quite a lot of places that would like these. Lots of people currently breathing in terrible quality air would much rather have their boring city benches replaced with really fucking cool algae tanks that clean the air and can be used to help create + sustain future green spaces in cities. I dunno about you, but I'd take that over a dumb metal bench any day. Put these at every bus stop and I'd be delighted.

can ppl pls reblog this version

[obsidian-flame]

Serbian here living in Belgrade! This is all true and I've actually seen some of these around the city a few times. They're amazing at what they do and really cool to watch up close because you can see pretty swirling inside them. It's not only functional but aesthetically pretty nice as well!

No need to worry about the cat girl chirping and wiggling her butt in the air while she stares at you. She's totally not going to pounce on you. I promise...

[bebsi-cola]

actually pigs shouldn't be at pride even outside of uniform. fuck those guys

[glumshoe]

someone fired a bullet through our bathroom wall the other day when we were gone, which is scary (but probably accidental), but the weirdest part is that we can’t actually find the place where it entered from outside... the wall inside is fucked up and you can see the hole where it came through, but there is no corresponding entrance hole on the exterior of the house. somehow the outer paneling was undamaged.

[glumshoe]

I think the exterior of the house is asbestos siding which apparently hides bullet holes really well.

There’s also a dent on the opposite wall where the bullet bounced off, and it looks like it had a really bizarre trajectory. Anyway, the neighbors say it was from a car chase where bullets went flying everywhere, so I’m not actually worried beyond “wow hope that doesn’t happen near me again”.

[mythopoetry]

This is the most American post I have ever seen

[glumshoe]

“someone fired a bullet through my asbestos from a car chase” yeah fair

DISABLED TRANS WOMAN & WIFE NEED TO MOVE !!!!!!! AGH FUCK (my wife also got fired! this fucking sucks!)

HI everyone. sorry you haven't heard from me in a while. there's been a lot going on IRL including being sick and courting 2 lovely lesbian trans women from a city we plan to move to. you know me, im a disabled trans woman. my wife, also a trans woman, suffers from chronic pain and fatigue of her own. you know this

so remember how I'd said we'd be completely set for the forseeable future as long as nothing major and unexpected comes up??? So Um. first of all, that was going with the assumption (bc i wholly believed) I was going to be able to get disability benefits here. I have now found out I have been, for several years, chasing disability benefits I was never going to fucking get!!!! They Fucking Lied!!!! They put one tiny piece of small print that even other people looked over and didn't see that meant we would Never have gotten it. Because the government thinks disabled people are better off committing medically assisted suicide than, idk, helping us???

and also. my wife got fired. for stupid reasons. the real reason is that she got sick and took a few too many days off for her liking, but they gave some bullshit but Technically Correct reason to fire her. as much as I'd love to, we don't have the time and money and energy to Fight That in any meaningful way. which means we cannot get unemployment benefits bc she was Fired and not laid off or something.

this sucks. last time my wife job hunted in this shitty town, it took Nine Fucking Months to find something, and we at least had unemployment benefits that time. this time we will not. we cannot fucking afford to do that.

luckily, there is a way out. like i said, we have two lovely girlfriends in the nearby city that we've been trying to move to for years. and we were already planning to move in with them. so. our best option is to uhaul. once we're in the city and living together, they can support me and my wife, and my wife will have a much easier time finding a job in a bigger city.

they can only help so much until we live together, one is employed (but searching for a higher paying job as we speak) and the other just got laid off but is applying for unemployment benefits and job hunting. their focus currently though is saving for whatever deposits and such we may need to move into a new place & also any costs they have for their own needs and lives (as it stands they do not live together yet). so they can only really help us so much. they will help us with our larger goal when they can but its not Guaranteed, so im going to need to ask for help. A Lot More than before.

most of what we need is not immediate, moving costs won't be needed until the end of June, and most of the bills won't be needed until then either. we get a couple small payments over the next month and a half that will be our grocery and gas budgets, so thats not a concern. we have a bit set aside in savings (400 CAD) but preferably we'd like to keep that and not use it all up??? especially bc some of it is supposed to go towards our cat getting fixed. the goal will be assuming we don't have to use up our savings, it will be a last resort if we can't make the goal set.

OUR GOAL IS $1850 CAD ($1345 USD)

$1400 is bills, only $400 of that is bills we need to pay this month

$450 is moving costs, we will not need that until the end of June

(if people really want the full breakdown of bills and moving costs, message me or reply on this post or something and I can let you know, if it's really important to you)

MY WIFE'S PAYPAL (we live in Canada so this is our only option (aside from etransfers, dm me if you wish to do that), if you want to pay some other way dm me and i'll see what we can do)

I will regularly reblog this with progress amounts. If we contribute to the goal on our own (we're going to do food delivery and my wife has applied for a couple jobs she could do short term while we still live here), or if our girlfriends give us anything towards it, WE WILL UPDATE THE AMOUNT RECIEVED WITH THAT IN MIND, I would like to be fully honest with everyone.

thank you very much everyone, for all you've done for me in the past. I really will be safe in a much more stable situation if we can make it through this one, I REALLY FOR REAL 100 PERCENT PROMISE THIS TIME 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Hi everyone, sorry you haven't heard from me for a bit. We've been really busy trying to figure out logistics. Additionally, one of my girlfriends has had to come live with me here for the time being both because my wife has began work in the city early and is staying with our other partner, so this one is here to come take care of me, but also had to come here out of necessity because her living situation became hostile.

Currently, we are at

$360/1850 CAD

we have a month left!!! and there's going to be more bills soon!!!!

if this post can't regain traction I'm going to have to make a new post. Please keep sharing and helping out, we really really really need it 💜💜💜

the best part of getting brainwashed is not the brainwashing itself. it's when you get to betray all your friends and loved ones and they scream and yell at you.

"This isn't really you!" "I know you're still in there!" "Please, fight it! I know you can resist!"

Oh yes, keep going, I'm so close~

[natalieironside]

There's always a moment of intense cultural whiplash whenever I realize I'm talking to someone who thinks "legal" and "illegal" are meaningful categories and ascribes innate goodness to following the law. It's like meeting a space alien.

i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges
