Today, I've saw a really interesting news article related with environment science field...
This article is about a new concept, where to combine the tree/plants together with Solar Energy. The breakthrough design come from the Spain's environment science architecture company, Ecosistema Urbano and they named this great urban structure as 'Air Tree'.
This "Air Tree" is build from the recycled materials and also a 100% energy self-sufficient. The roof is full with photovoltaic cells, it assumed that it will produces substantial amount of Solar Energy. All of the solar energy will be sold to the local electric companies and the all of the profits will be reused for the structure maintenance fee.
Another specialty for this 'Air Tree' is this four storey building filled up with green plants, that make it turned into a big photosynthesis field. When the plants starting the photosynthesis process, this structure will release a large number of Oxygen and will refreshing the surrounding area. Furthermore, this will help to reduce the heat island effect found in most city centers.
When the summer is coming through, 'Air Tree' also can become a tourism 'hot-spot', where many of the peoples will come here to enjoy the 'cool down' moment...
PS: Nearly forgot to tell you all, that this cool structure also have the 'swings' and benches facilities at the building base ground as well...
This kind of 'Air Tree' structure will be arrived at every big city of the world soon...

Fascinating! I haven't heard about this one before. It must need an awful lot of space though.
To a.: Yeah, this is a very new concept that still in a "Beta" version in Madrid, Spain. I think if this concept work, then they will be spread like a wild fire to all other major cities around the world...
