Green Curtains in the Kyocera Group Japan
Geschreven op 2-9-2010 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Bouwen-Klussen, KlimaatIn 2009, Green Curtains grown at Kyocera Group locations stretched a total length of 294 m (965 ft), covering a total area of 775 m2 (8,342ft2).
This is roughly equivalent to the area of 3 tennis courts. The growth of these Green Curtains will be able to absorb roughly 2,713 kg CO2 per year, or roughly the same amount as 194 cedar trees.
Moreover, the soft green color of the foliage that shades the windows creates a relaxing atmosphere, which has become a topic of conversation for both employees and visitors at Kyocera’s various locations. After experiencing the benefits of the Green Curtains at work, many employees have also taken up the activity at their own homes. Source: Kyocera
