2. Nifty!
The vertical garden thing is really cool. I read about one that was self-watering and water recycling at the same time because the plants themselves act as the water filters. Bonus: The plants filter the air in a room.

3. Yes! and if you keep out chemicals, the water can be cycled through an aquarium...

Like the Sun Curve:

Fish poop feeds the plants, the soil purifies the water, solar power runs the recirculation pumps!

Win win win win!!!
