I think that this new fuel source is a great place to start, and a step in the right direction, but it is still not going to replace the power grid. To switch over the worlds system to this box will take a very long time with the rate production is at, and will be very expensive. Also it still needs some sort of external energy to fuel it, such as natural gas to fossil fuels. This makes it co-dependant from sources that are seemingly in a crisis. It can also run off of oxygen, and that could potentially pose a new threat to the enviornment considering oxygen is crucial for our survival. It still seems like a good idea, although I feel the technology needs to go further in order to act uopn it.

Wow this guy is a genius. I believe this new power source is a step to global efficiency in the energy world. Replacing power grids with the bloom boxes is a great idea. Individual businesses are then able to power their own buildings instead of connecting to power grids. It makes life easier, as long as they find a way to make it cheaper for globalization.

This is so cool, It seams almost too good. But I hope that it succedes and becomes part of the everyday.
I think that the reason that he wants them on the lawn is becasue it consumes oxygen and if a person went into that basement they could sufficate.

Being young and entering the 21st century, I'm excited about what may come in the near future. I think that this new invention is a great start for other new and great ideas to come. I predict that these bloom boxes will become cheaper and better as time goes on and more and more people will have them across the world.

this guy could be the absolute hero of the 21st century if this works. He seems confident, and i feel like not only is his invention great, but his plan is well thought out. I dont think this guy is as much in it for the money at this point as he is in the sense that he just wants to be a hero. being from a poor country like india he probably has seen it bad, and knows that this invention of his could be the savior. IM ON BOARD!!!

To have the knowledge and the great ideas that this man has would be amaing. This is definetally a step in the right direction. I think that this is a great idea to helping save money and help the world to continue with being "green". I hope to see this turn out and eventually have it affordable for almost everyone to bring in the full potential of the BloomBox.

I think that this is a very smart idea, and it is really cool that humans are creating such great inventions that are not only helping the planet more, but also are getting the human race further with technology. I hope to see the Bloom Boxes in everyones home in the future, such a great money saver. Also, it is a great idea that they would want to put it in remote villages in Africa, becuase it would help get African villages more modernarized. And it could create an easier lifestyle for many.

I just think it's awesome. Technology is so advanced now yet there's always new things like this being developed that would have been unimaginable before.

This invention is amazing, to think a small box could power a house for a long period of time is unbelievable. This would be a great step in tech for the U.S. To be able to cut down on electricty bills would be nice
