Houseplants DO clean the air

By Michael

I’m triggered over being targeted about my houseplants. No it’s not really controversial.  I’ve mentioned the air cleaning benefits of plants before. For a long time the common wisdom is that plants change carbon dioxide and light into oxygen which cleans the air. One single journal article has caused an avalanche of misleading headlines all over the internet and you should be concerned. the November 2019 study does not invalidate the 1989 NASA study, but sort of finishes it. NASA went into depth about how well each type of plant did in cleaning up harmful chemicals in a sealed environment over a 24 hour period.
