A Natural Sustainable paint made using moss

The Green Paint is a proposal to practice radical urban gardening in daily lives by using moss as a paint to decorate one's surroundings and garden. The green paint is made using very easily available and cheap sustainable materials and can be made very easily by following simple steps. The Green Paint is a great way to bring life in the gardens or even a starting point for a vertical garden. Its as easy to use as a regular paint but much more healthier for the environment and the people as moss has its own several benefits. The paint is a very unique and sustainable alternative to expensive garden and interior decorations and the chemical paints used to decorate the gardens plus with the benefits it provides like fresh oxygen and reducing stress, it's a must have thing.


The paint can also be used to spread social awareness in the society and encourage more people to adopt the practice in their own lives. In a way, it can be used as a moss graffiti to reach out to a larger audience. It is a fun and innovative activity to do without having to do a lot of trouble and moss majorly survives on it's own so it does not require a lot of human attention. It is a great starting point towards a positive change.
