If Michael Strano has his way, homes and streets of the future will be lit up with “green” energy — literally — from glowing plants and trees. While that may sound like a lofty goal, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor of chemical engineering and his team are well on their way to realizing the dream with a luminescent plant, which they hope will someday replace your bedside or table lamp!

    The plants are probably expensive, though. Or at least the spray.

          Very interesting. But what will happen to electricity? We discovered electricity just to exchange it with plants!?

              It is surprising but what are the harmful effects of it on trees.

                  This should replace lamps because they are expensive

                  this plant could make the energy usage so much smaller!
