Cloud-Milking: Zero-Energy Water for Reforestation

About this episode

In this episode of The Zero Emission Zone, we dive into the innovative “cloud-milking” technology that’s helping to reforest drought-stricken and fire-damaged areas. Developed in the Canary Islands, this zero-energy technique collects water from fog using mesh structures that mimic pine needles. Join us to explore how cloud-milking is being used worldwide to keep young trees alive, irrigate crops, and even provide drinking water—all without the need for electricity or fossil fuels.
