The time has come to move SYNBIO microbes outside the lab/fermentor & recognize them as allies to repair the env damage we have inflicted on the planet. Achieving this at a truly global scale demands fresh views beyond the very limited Western mindset of control and containment

Prof. Neil Weiley and Prof. Rachel Armstrong spill out Mi-Hy secrets under the pressure from NOGAN forces. How were they able to grow vegetables undercover and leave no traces? What energy source did they use to go off-grid?

๐Ÿšจ Illegal food production. Wastewater-powered hydroponics. Scientists under investigation. Welcome to #NOGANIC โ€” our dystopian short film created for the EU project Mi-Hy. The story is fiction. The science is real: microbes turning waste into nutrients youtu.be/g4Xgko4t7Ow

Bio-fiction at its best! Here is the science fiction short film we produced for research project Mi-Hy detailing the role of microbial fuel cells and hydroponics to successfully evade a future climate survaillance state, and get away with it! mi-hy.eu/noganic/
