PolyNation

Top 8 Team

Leo Roth

PolyNation seeks to rewild urban areas, supporting native pollinator populations and humans alike. The PolyFlower is a 3D Printed artificial flower made primarily from algae and biomaterials, and C-Pollen, an artificial pollen substitute derived from citrus food waste to provide life support to urban pollinators. The project seeks to find a net-negative intervention into the dangerous feedback loop between dwindling native floral and faunal populations.
