'''The Eden Project''' is a large-scale biospherics project based in Cornwall, South-West UK. Comprising of a system of huge "biomes" (bio-domes), they sustain plants in their natural environments. Replicating the climates of the Mediterranean, Tropics and other warm locations, a variety of plant species flourish. Domes of a similar design could be used on an established Mars colony to create large [[greenhouse]]s to grow [[food]] and provide a [[Mars Garden Wins Gold at London’s Chelsea Flower Show (MarsHome.org)|source of comfort to colonists]].
