This allows us to sustainably tap into the earth\u2019s ambient temperature of approximately 18\u00b0C and cool the building during the warmer months, heat it during cooler months and provide domestic hot water (by capturing \u201clost\u201d energy) all year round. The net result is that we\u2019ll use only a fraction of the energy that conventional cooling\/heating systems use.<\/p>\n<p>But this isn\u2019t the only way we reduce our carbon footprint. We actually consume carbon onsite. Of course, pretty much all plants do this but we\u2019re taking air purification to another level. With extensive planting including more than 150m2 of densely packed vertical gardens, we\u2019re consuming carbon and producing oxygen at a rate equivalent to a small forest.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, these plants get thirsty. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve designed BREATHE\u2122 to capture and recycle rainwater for our gardens in a large underground reservoir. We\u2019re also making use of the latest innovations in planting technology by using hydro-fertilizers to reduce our irrigation by a whopping 50 &#8211; 80 per cent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 50%; background-color: #ecece7; float: right; text-align: center; padding: 20px;\">\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2043\" src=\"https:\/\/www.breathe.life\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/hydro_breathe-300x260.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"260\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>BREATHE\u2122 geothermal energy plant<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not all \u2014 we\u2019ll keep you updated as the journey progresses.
