We live in an unsustainable world, using resources faster than we can replenish them and pushing the earth beyond it's fragile limits. Nature shows us a better way, as biology is sustainable, so we can harness genetic engineering to create better solutions. The glowing plant inspires hope in a more sustainable future and educates people about this wonderful and mis-understood technology. The Glowing Plant uses the tools of synthetic biology and a design print transform cycle. The team designed the DNA sequences on a computer using special Biocad software, then they made the DNA using DNA laser printing before using a Gene Gun to insert the DNA into our plant. The more iterations made through the cycle, the brighter the plant will be.
