ABSTRACT:
The ability to effectively landscape an artificial surface that normally is incapable of supporting plant growth while simultaneously eliminating hazardous substances from the surrounding atmosphere in a simple and efficient manner is provided. A substrate having a thickness of at least 0.5 cm. is constructed that comprises an effective concentration of solid particles dispersed therein (e.g., activated carbon particles) that are capable of absorbing hazardous substances from the surrounding atmosphere. Also dispersed within the substrate is provided an effective concentration of living microorganisms that are capable of converting the hazardous substances when absorbed on the solid particles into non-hazardous substances that are capable of being utilized during the growth of plants that are rooted in the substrate.
