So he and his team decided to build the largest air purifier in the world: the Smog Free Tower. “This is not the bright future we envision,” Roosegaarde says. The tower is the brainchild of Dutch artist Daan Roosegaarde who looked out his hotel window in Beijing and realized that the smog was so thick, he couldn’t see the city.Įight-year-olds in the city have been diagnosed with lung cancer, and the filthy air has reduced residents’ life expectancy by 15 – 16 years. Sound like sci-fi? It’s real - and there are smog diamonds out there to prove it.
In one of the world’s most polluted cities, there’s a futuristic tower that sucks up smog, turns it into clean air, and filters out the smog particles so they can be turned into diamonds.
