Re: Breathing Easy
Glad to have you on the job. There’s a lot of sneezing and nose blowing in our home this winter, so get to work clearing the air. (We tried but ended up with jammed windows and a bad case of Swiffer arm.)
But you appear invincible, being a purifier that uses houseplants to sanitize indoor air. The Harvard prof who coinvented you found a genius way to speed up a plant’s natural filtration process. We simply drop in flora (aloe, peace lilies, and spider plants work best) and you draw in pollutants, including toxic gases. A whisper-soft fan pushes out fresh wafts.
You’re an eco dream, with no replaceable filters and low energy consumption. A looker, too: Designed in Paris, you resemble a modern terrarium rather than a machine.
Report directly to the nursery.
Hopefully, your first days will really suck.
