Smell
Pollution -
When
living in the city really stinks
Stench -- truly
one of the evils of living the urban lifestyle. Seems no matter
where you turn there's another stinky thing sneaking up your nose.
The dumpster, the bus and car exhaust, the wild cats, the guy next
door who hasn't showered in the 20th Century. What can you do about
it?
You've got two
options, you can mask it or try to filter it out. Masking it means
just covering its smell with something even stronger - like flowering
tobacco or scented geraniums. There are many options to suit your
particular lighting availability.
Filtering the
smell, your second option (in case you forgot) involves using a
wall of plants that transpire a lot - that means they give off moisture.
The moisture helps to absorb the odors and work as an air cleaner.
Plants that go through lots and lots of water are best for this.
Of course, that means you have to be prepared to go through lots
of water, too.
