The purpose of this project is to create a filter system that will notify you that there are harmful substances in the air and convert them into a neutral substance. The system will also purify rain water, serve as a carbon sink, and create ethanol for fuel. In order to change the genetic makeup of Bamboo and bacteria, two different techniques are suggested for use, CRISPR and mutagenesis. The CRISPR system will be used to insert a gene that will prevent the overgrowth of the bamboo through turning on contact inhibition genes similar to those found in eukaryotic cells.
