When the sap is exposed to the skin effect will cause itching and irritation, and if swallowed accidentally the effect will breathless, even if a high dose can cause coma and death.

Marginata tricolor
Marginata evidently able to reduce the pollution formaldehid.

Trembesi
this patron Tree is known as the highest absorption carbon dioxide.

That some plants that are useful to absorb pollutant. So start from your own environment with plant to plant anti-pollutant. Go GREEN
