what does it mean....
with reference to http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22433866:
1) I don't understand the meaning of the title:
'Kickstarter crowd gives glowing plant the green light'
i.e.: the crowd of www.Kickstarter.com gives .... what is the object???
2) in the second-last phrase:
' "Nobody can deny that the idea of walking down a path lit by glowing trees is pretty enticing... what has disappointed me has been the lack of discussion as to what the team actually plan to do with the funds raised, and whether the science stacks up." he said. '
what does it mean "the science stacks up"?
Thanks a lot!

passive form
Reading an article on internet I have found:
"However, it hopes that the same process will work for a rose, which it considers to be more commercially appealing."
I think in this phrase 'it hopes' means 'it is hoped' and so 'it considers' means 'it is considered', is it right?
Can I use always the form 'it hopes' like for the passive form?
Thanks
