Smog Mitigating Paint

An Italian company has come up with a coating that eats smog. The titanium dioxide in the coating accelerates natural oxidation, breaking down the nitrogen oxides from fossil fuel emissions that contribute to ground level ozone, smog. The tests show a 60 percent reduction at ground level, but only within 8 feet of the building.

The product is undergoing further tests in Europe and Japan. The Japanese have an acute need for smog destroying chemicals.
