What are plants for?

Everyone remembers from the school biology course thatplants process carbon dioxide into oxygen, which a person breathes. That is why it is so important that in large smoke-filled cities there are many green massifs. The constant deforestation of the world leads to a rapid reduction of the green cover of the planet, which, in turn, negatively affects animals and man. In addition, a man annually creates more and more new plants and factories, which throw an enormous amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Naturally, this attitude to the environment has a tremendous impact on people. Stress, drowsiness, constant fatigue - it's just the tip of the iceberg.

Plants help to create a comfortable atmosphere inhouse. It is also worthwhile to put such a green friend at work. Plenty of room does not take a plant, but it will be of use, but it only needs to be watered from time to time and sometimes sprinkled with foliage.
