Plants are essential for life. Not only do they give us food and clean air, but they can also help reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) in indoor environments. So, what is the best indoor plant to reduce CO2?
There are a variety of plants that can absorb CO2 and convert it into oxygen while keeping our air healthy and free from pollution. Commonly used plants include bamboo palms, rubber plants, peace lilies, aloe vera, English ivy, and Chinese evergreen.
These plants have been known to effectively reduce CO2 levels over long periods of time when properly maintained with adequate light and water. While some require minimal care and thrive without much TLC, others need frequent watering and occasional pruning to look their best.
However, all these plants are relatively low maintenance compared to other common houseplants like orchids or succulents which,h require more specialized attention for optimal health.
For those looking for an easy option, the most efficient way to reduce indoor CO2 concentrations is with a living wall – a miniature vertical garden made from a combination of various leafy greens that will bring life into any room as well as absorb odors and release fresh air.
