I really want to see this or at least more buildings employing similar technology.

What this is a Biowall. It features plants held on a wall via thick matting, watered by a continual flow from the top, and with fans behind the plants.

The plants act like a huge filter from pollutants which typically float about in the workspace, while the fan moves the filtered air about the various floors.

Cool technology and it looks great too!

Unlike this funny set of equations, this seems like an improbable equation. How could hair and oil possibly give off mushrooms and a cleaner environment?

According to a San Francisco-based non-profit, the answer is quite easily. Human hair is woven into mats which are used to absorb motor oil. These soaked mats are then spawned with oyster mushrooms (which are edible) that then turn the gunk into something that is easily compostable.
