## Verdis

Verdis is a bioengineered plant system that harnesses the natural ability of plants to detect air quality and transmit that information to digital networks. It acts as “a canary in the coal mine,” by signaling the presence of invisible indoor pollutants. And it cultivates a symbiotic relationship between plants and people. As we tend for them; they take care of us.
