Europe’s largest living wall unveiled in the UK

<a href="http://www2.nationalgrid.com/Contact-us/Our-offices/Warwick/">National Grid</a> is the latest company to claim the largest living wall in Europe. At their headquarters, known as the National Grid House, just outside of Warwick at the site that controls the United Kingdom's power distribution, the company recently built a new car park. They then commissioned <a href="http://www.one-worlddesign.co.uk/">One World Design</a> to wrap the whole thing with a massive vertical garden measuring 11,054 square meters, resulting in a substantial carbon sink that aims to demonstrate the importance of sustainability--even to a power distribution company.
