Studies show that indoor air can be up to ten times more polluted than outside air. (Source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency). For children, who spend an average of 30 hours per week inside school buildings, the potential hazards of poor indoor air quality are pervasive. O2 for You was launched in 2008 when Costa Farms delivered hundreds of peace lilies to hospitals in New York City and Philadelphia, working with Earth Day New York and The Clean Air Council. "We want to communicate the benefits of indoor plants and the role they play to purify indoor air to educators and students across the nation," says Jose Smith, Costa Farms CEO. "Kicking off this program during National Green Week 2010 affords the perfect opportunity." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ Thank you for your participation in this exciting campaign to enhance the indoor quality of learning environments across the country. Working together, we can help preserve the planet, one plant at a time.
