Any claims that plants "clean the air" are incredibly overblown. You would have to have a 100sqft room with zero air circulation filled with dozens of large plants in 10" pots to even make a minimal effect.
@@briannelson3830 that's how the NASA study was essentially done, it is a proof of concept, but still nowhere near the scale to make an appreciable impact. All you'd notice is minute readings on a scale in a sealed environment, which do not scale up to or equate to real world household conditions. Actual air cleaners and opening the window would have immediate appreciable impacts
Kaylee Ellen just did a video investigation on this and pretty much got the same results. It's sad really how much BS they concocted and expected people to believe.
Oh, for sure! 'scientist' is a really vague term and there's lots of room for "citizen science" which is typically done by un/under qualified people, usually has oversight by a university or research department though.
bachelors/masters or other degrees exist and even self studying can get some people to the same qualifications I'm sure, but you have to be careful of the people who've read five posts on facebook, did 20 minutes of additional googling and then think they know better than all the "Big Pharma and Big Science people paid by the government"
The most important skill I ever learned in college is to always call bs when reading a study oe experiment until proven otherwise.. I don't think they ever proved me otherwise
