Indoor and outdoor air pollution are major public health risks in India according to several sources. Over 70% of air quality monitoring stations across India exceed national air quality standards. In Delhi, air pollution is responsible for over 4 million children suffering from lung and respiratory diseases, and air pollution-related deaths increased 50% from 1990 to 2015. Certain plants like peace lilies, Boston ferns, and Janet Craig plants can significantly reduce indoor air pollutants like VOCs and formaldehyde.

- 2. SECONDARY RESEARCH • According to EPA, indoor air quality is one of Top Five risks to public to public health • As per CPCB survey, 23 of the 32 stations across (mainly cities) India are showing more than 70% exceedance of the national standards Impact on cities ➢ From 1990 to 2015, air pollution-related deaths jumped 50 percent claiming 1 life in every 23 seconds ➢ In Delhi alone 4.4 Million children suffer from lung and respiratory diseases ➢ PM10 concentration in Delhi is 268 g/m3 for the year 2015, which are 4.5 times higher than the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) annual limit set by CPCB Effect of plants: Janet Craig – Three of these plants in a 130- square foot room cuts VOC’s up to 70% Peace Lilly – Can boost a room’s humidity by up to 5%. In the winter months, this small increase is enough to relieve dry throats and noses. Boston Fern – is the most effective plant to remove the toxic gas formaldehyde. Air Pollution : Key Trends India is ranked 141 out of 180 countries in Environmental Performance Index and is the third and third in Green House gas emissions in the world P.M 2.5: 23 of the 32 stations across India are showing more than 70% exceedance of the national standards According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air quality is one of the Top Five Risks to public health Product Lin Extension 2 According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air quality is one of the top five risks to public health.
Editor's Notes
- #3: Abhilash The assessment of air pollution levels for Delhi highlighted that PM10 concentrations are 268 g/m3 for the year 2015, which are 4.5 times higher than the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) annual limit set by CPCB, and about 13 times the annual limit set by WHO for PM10.
