Ginger Kreig Dosier,37 years old smart cookie, spent her past 10 years of her time in research for new building material with green on her mind. Well not money green, it's mother earth green.
Her hard thinking and experiments paying off now. She invented bioMason, if people start using it from now on, the mother earth will gradually become greener an the money green will come knocking at her door, fully deserves it.
Using sands on the brick moulds, inoculate with microorganisms (Sporosarcina Pasteurii bacteria), fed with calcium ions suspended in water and two to five days later the bioMason is produced.
