NASA published a paper in 1989 claiming that house plants can soak up pollution and toxic chemicals. Businesses and homeowners have increasingly invested in greenery to help clean their air.
1989年，NASA發(fā)表了一篇論文，聲稱室內植物可以吸收污染和有毒化學物質。企業(yè)和房主們因此越來越多地投資于綠色植物，以幫助凈化空氣。
But a new analysis suggests it could actually take more than 1,000 plants per square meter to gain a benefit any greater than simply opening a couple of windows.
但一項新的分析表明，要獲得比僅僅打開幾扇窗戶更大的益處，實際上每平方米可能需要1000多株植物。
The problem lies in the fact that NASA conducted its tests in sealed containers that do not simulate the conditions in most people's homes or offices.
問題在于，NASA的實驗是在密封容器中進行的，這些容器并不能模擬大多數家庭或辦公室的條件。
The space agency was primarily concerned about keeping the air fresh for astronauts cut off in biospheres or space stations, and helping to combat sick building syndrome, which had become a problem due to the super-insulated and energy-efficient offices of the late 1970s.
該太空機構主要關注的是為生物圈或空間站中與世隔絕的宇航員保持空氣新鮮，并幫助解決由于20世紀70年代末的超絕緣和節(jié)能辦公室而出現的“病態(tài)建筑綜合癥”問題。
By the early 1980s, workers regularly complained of skin rashes, sleepiness, headaches, and allergies as they breathed in toxic chemicals from paints and plastics. NASA found that certain plants could remove chemicals from the air.
到了20世紀80年代初，工人們經常抱怨因吸入油漆和塑料中的有毒化學物質而出現皮膚皮疹、嗜睡、頭痛和過敏。NASA發(fā)現，某些植物可以從空氣中去除化學物質。
Even today, garden sensors recommend the plants for air cleaning properties. However, a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years found that house plants in a normal environment have little impact.
即使到今天，園藝傳感器仍然推薦這些植物用于空氣凈化。然而，一項對過去30年中數十項研究的新評估發(fā)現，在普通環(huán)境中，室內植物的影響微乎其微。
In fact, natural ventilation is far better at cleaning the air. The researchers also calculated the clean air delivery rate for plants in the studies they analyzed and found that the rate at which plants dispersed the compounds was well below the usual rates of air exchange in a normal building caused by the movement of people coming and going, opening doors and windows.
事實上，自然通風在凈化空氣方面要遠勝于植物。研究人員還計算了他們分析的研究中植物的空氣凈化率，發(fā)現植物分散化合物的速率遠低于正常建筑中由于人們進出、開關門窗而引起的空氣交換速率。
Many of the studies did show a reduction in the concentration of volatile organic compounds over time, which is likely why people have seized on them to praise the air-purifying virtues of plants. But the researchers' calculation showed it would take 10 to 1,000 plants per square meter of floor space to compete with the air cleaning capacity of a building's air handling system or even just a couple of open windows in a house.
許多研究確實表明，隨著時間的推移，揮發(fā)性有機化合物的濃度有所降低，這可能就是人們?yōu)楹巫プ∵@一點來贊揚植物的空氣凈化作用。但研究人員的計算表明，要獲得與建筑物的空氣處理系統(tǒng)或甚至僅僅是一個房子里打開的幾扇窗戶相當的空氣凈化能力，每平方米地板空間可能需要10到1000株植物。
In contrast, NASA's sealed experiment recommended one pot plant per 100 square feet. This is certainly an example of how scientific findings can be misleading or misinterpreted over time. But it is also a great example of how scientific research should continually reexamine and question findings to get closer to the ground truth of understanding what is actually happening.
相比之下，NASA的密封實驗建議每100平方英尺（約9.3平方米）擺放一盆植物。這無疑是科學發(fā)現如何隨時間推移而產生誤導或誤解的一個例子。但這也是科學研究應如何不斷重新審視和質疑研究結果，以更接近了解實際情況的真相的一個絕佳例子。
