I like this plan, M. What about writing in three "chunks" or so. You can imagine that you are preparing three blog posts. You may want to use Science Daily articles as links, for the plants that are most effective in air purification qualities. This way, your audience does not hit paywalls.

Plant care is helpful, too, especially about light conditions.

Looking forward to this. BECAUSE PLANTS.
