Toyota has created a new plant species designed to offset the CO2 created by its Prius assembly operations in Toyota City, Japan. The flowers are derivatives of the cherry sage plant and the gardenia. The sage leaves have unique characteristics that absorb harmful gases, while the gardenia leaves create water vapor in the air, reducing the surface temperature of the factory and therefore, reducing the energy needed for cooling, in turn producing less carbon dioxide.

Toyota isn’t simply unveiling its own iteration of electric car charging boxes (to be anchored to telephone poles and other roadside infrastructure for easy access, just like Coulomb’s) — its models are solar. Equipped with solar cells, they channel power to high-capacity batteries, which are then used to juice up vehicles’ batteries when they are on the go.
