Plants Help Improve Air Quality

According to Ambius:

There is general agreement amongst scientists that plants improve the indoor environment and are useful in fighting the modern phenomenon of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). 

No specific cause of SBS has been identified but poor air quality, excessive background noise and inadequate control of light and humidity are all thought to be important factors. 

Because plants have large surface areas and exchange gases and water with their surroundings, plants can help tackle some of these issues. 

Particular benefits of interior plants include: 

- Reducing carbon dioxide levels 
- Increasing humidity 
- Reducing levels of certain pollutants, such as benzene and nitrogen dioxide 
- Reducing airborne dust levels
