Having plants in the office is great for putting green in the bank. Plants are known to reduce pollutants, molds, and bacteria in the air. Numerous studies, at both U.S. universities and abroad, indicate that plant life in the office can increase productivity and creative problem solving by 12%-15%, improve recall, focus attention, and inhibit aggression. Who doesn’t want more productivity in the office place? Plants that are properly selected and placed can also reduce cooling costs by as much as 20% and keep the office humidity in the ideal range. Strategically placed plants also reduce office noise pollution. One study found that plants had a greater impact on employee happiness than windows!
