Wow, interesting (and literally very ‘green’), an Austrian company called Biotop Natural Pool uses plants to create an ecosystem where the pool is teaming with life. Pool designs have separate swimming and plant-growing areas of equal size. The plants eat the algae, which would otherwise take over. Via Mike Elgan on Google+
BIOTOP Natural Pools use plants instead of chlorine to keep water safe
