Eiffel Tower to be turned into green jungle

[Playfair]

The Eiffel Tower could be transformed into a giant green "jungle" covered in 600,000 plants as part of an environmental scheme.
In a controversial plan that could change the Paris skyline, £65m pounds could reportedly be spent on making the Eiffel Tower the most "ecologically correct" tourist attraction in the world.

It would be cool if DC did a Poison Ivy story to mimic this.

That's all I got.

The perfect playground for the surrender monkeys.

Seems like a sensible way to spend moolah.....

I thought that thing was supposed to be temporary anyway. Get rid of the whole steel monstrosity.

Can we shoot it with self replicating metal eating nanomites if we pay $65 million?

Good idea. We need more environmental awareness in Europe, particularly in urban centers. Much better than Bejing and London wasting all that money and resources on massive Olympic venues that are used for a few weeks and then languish.

Structurally, I wonder if you could do the same thing with that red bridge over the bow...
