"Gerbera daisies, peace lilies, and English ivy are good protection against benzene and trichloroethylene"
That, and 49 other helpful tips can be found here, courtesy of the Liberal Party of Canada. And while some will snicker, I think Canadians actually want to do “little things” like this to help the environment. But do they want to pay more? That, my friends, is the make it or break it question…
