as posted by the channel

Fungi are some of the most ancient organisms around. But could they also be the future of construction and building materials? Researchers and companies are looking to turn mushrooms into the building blocks of sustainable homes and workspaces.

WSJ’s Daniela Hernandez breaks down how fungi are being turned into bricks that rival traditional building materials, like concrete.

I’m Daniela Hernandez, a health and science reporter for WSJ, and on this channel I’ll be covering a variety of subjects from neuroscience to the science of food and public health. If you’re interested in science and health and how cutting edge research impacts our lives, don’t forget to subscribe.
