Hi Huck - thats a good question. To add it, I have recently been seeing
lots of social media posts about ''Top 7 Houseplants That Clean the Air'' -
they mostly seem to be talk about VOC's and other chemical related indoor
air pollution in modern Western households, but what effects would having
lots of house plants help in reducing biomass emissions problems?

All the best,

Teddy
