Plants remove toxins from air – up to 87 percent of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) every 24 hours, according to NASA research. Modern climate-controlled, air-tight buildings trap VOCs inside. The NASA research discovered that plants purify that trapped air by pulling contaminants into soil, where root zone microorganisms convert VOCs into food for the plant.

For a self-contained garden all you require is a water hose and a composting unit on the terrace. If terrace gardening is not possible, at least you may opt for few plants in earthen pots. Watching the plants grow and flower, watering and feeding them is a fulfilling experience. It is a hobby that allows children to enjoy nature’s company. They spend their time fruitfully instead of idling away in front of the television.

At night, photosynthesis ceases, and plants typically respire like humans, absorbing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. A few plants – orchids, succulents and epiphytic bromeliads – do just the opposite, taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Place these plants in bedrooms to refresh air during the night.
