With designs for habitat-printing robot birds, water-filtering sewer submarines, and compost cannons that can blast seed bombs over a kilometre, Mushin shares his vision for super-high-tech urban rewilding. Ultrawild is an optimistic book about creative thinking, science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) and the potential for massive change. It aims to empower and excite a new generation of designers, scientists, engineers, and ultra-wild thinkers. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 October 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Allen \u0026amp; Unwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJoin maverick inventor Steve Mushin as he tackles climate change with an avalanche of mind-bending, scientifically plausible inventions to rewild cities and save the planet. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJump into his brain as he designs habitat-printing robot birds and water-filtering sewer submarines, calculates how far compost cannons can blast seed bombs (over a kilometre), brainstorms biomaterials with scientists and engineers, studies ecosystems, and develops a deadly serious plan to transform cities into jungles, rewilding them into carbon-sucking mega-habitats for all species, and as fast as possible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough marvelously designed and hilarious engineering ideas, Mushin shares his vision for super-high-tech urban rewilding, covering the science of climate change, futuristic materials and foods, bio reactors, soil, forest ecosystems, mechanical flight, solar thermal power, and working out just how fast we could actually turn roads into jungles, absorb carbon, and reverse climate change. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeveloped over seven years, Ultrawild is an optimistic book about creative thinking, science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) and the potential for massive change.
