GBlist: Living Wall



Hello GB-Heads;

An amigo from Arizona asked me if I knew anything about the
"Living Wall" (designed by Wolf Amelung ?) biological air filter/
conditioner that was installed in the Canada Life building in
Toronto.

All I had to offer was third-hand (and hand-waving at that )
cursory knowledge about it. ...ie A wall of volcanic rock with
water flowing over it, with various flora and fauna here and
there ...through and around which, air is passed in order to to
remove/neutralise contaminants/pollutants.

Can anyone else on this List enlighten my desert friend with
more/better information ? (I'm betting "Yes").
