The pair built four, 5-foot wooden structures at <abbr title=\"University of Hawaii\">UH<\/abbr>\u2019s Magoon Research Facility in M\u0101noa Valley to construct the roofs on. In September 2020, Cerwonka and Reighard attached the &ldquo;seawool&rdquo; layer to each of the structures, followed by the moss. They spent the remainder of fall 2020 and spring 2021 growing the moss, figuring out the most efficient way to care for them and collecting data for their research.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The idea was that it would decrease internal temperatures, decrease the amount of electricity needed to run your AC and less <abbr title=\"Carbon Dioxide\">CO2<\/abbr> will be emitted into the atmosphere,&rdquo; Reighard said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;There are systems like this already available, but not really in <span aria-label=\"Hawaii\">Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>&#8212;they\u2019re on the mainland. And one of the main goals they serve is insulation to the inside of a house,&rdquo; Cerwonka said. &ldquo;We wanted to create a system that uses moss as an insulating material, but also uses recycled materials in order to make it an environmentally-positive system.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The team persevered through the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic to complete their project, which included communicating remotely with each other and their advisor, and collecting and propagating the moss since they were not able to go outside for a period of time.<\/p>\n<h2>Tackling climate change<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/manoa-ctahr-nrem-moss-roofs-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"moss and fishing net on top of a wooden structure\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-144444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/manoa-ctahr-nrem-moss-roofs-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/manoa-ctahr-nrem-moss-roofs-130x73.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/manoa-ctahr-nrem-moss-roofs.jpg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cerwonka and Reighard created this project to fulfill two objectives related to their natural resources and environmental management program: helping to tackle climate change and solving issues at the household level.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I don\u2019t believe that the climate change fight is just for the governments&#8212;of course, that is something they need to handle as well&#8212;but it\u2019s also up to us as individuals, so Jasmine and I used our ability as students to create a system like this and get some research into the effectiveness of a system like this to be implemented at the household level to battle climate change, to make our houses more energy efficient and to remediate the atmosphere,&rdquo; Cerwonka said.<\/p>\n<h2>Future plans<\/h2>\n<p>While this phase of the project is complete, Cerwonka and Reighard don\u2019t want to stop here. They plan to publish an academic paper on their findings within the next few months and hope to commercialize their innovation. The first step in commercialization is the ability to quickly and efficiently produce the &ldquo;seawool&rdquo; through automation and then grow the moss directly on it in large quantities.<\/p>\n<p>Cerwonka and Reighard\u2019s advisor for the project was Professor <strong>Camilo Mora<\/strong> from the <a href=\"https:\/\/geography.manoa.hawaii.edu\/\">Department of Geography and Environment<\/a> in the <a href=\"https:\/\/socialsciences.manoa.hawaii.edu\/\">College of Social Sciences<\/a>.
