Indoor Air quality plays an important role in the work performance and the
health of the users.
With the passage of time the indoor levels of pollutants increases, sometimes
much higher than the outdoor levels.
To mitigate these effects a study was undertaken by IIT, TERI and
learnings from NASA that there are number of common green plants, with
which we can grow all the fresh air we need indoors to keep us healthy.
Common indoor plants may provide a valuable weapon in the fight against rising
levels of indoor air pollution & are very useful in
absorbing potentially harmful gases and cleaning the air inside modern buildings
and provide a natural way of helping combat Sick building syndrome.
