TIL that NASA recommends air-filtering house plants since we don't go outside anymore!

in #til8 years ago (edited)

okay so i think most of us are guilty of this - we spend way too much time indoors!

in times of online shopping, pizza delivery, skype meetings, vietual reality and even grocery delivery - who needs to gout outside anymore to buy stuff, meet people, or even experience things ? 


Due to this exact reason, NASA is now recommending to equip our house with more air-filtering plants, since we all don't get enough fresh air normally. 


I actually think it's quite funny that they now recommend to bring a little bit of the outside INTO our homes - since no one Likes to go outside anymore. Lol.

Well, I agree that people should bring more plants into their homes, especially if you are stuck in a small office-type room that gets bad air fast :) However, just go outside every now and then, it really does wonders for our mental health.

Totally, just getting some real fresh air is easier and more effective than stuffing your room with plants :D

Hahaha, crazy that it's even come this far. we should really spend more time outside!
