Air pollution today is the most important aspect of environmental study as every progress by mankind has deteriorated the air quality. Artificial technologies have proved insufficient to address this problem. So a better and a natural way to combat the air pollution is plantation. However, all plants do not show the same response to a particular type of pollutant. Hence, all plants cannot remediate all kinds of air pollution. There are various parameters on which plant species are selected for plantation viz. APTI, API, dust accumulating potential, carbon sequestering potential etc.
