HCR Update from Mark Sanna: Green Plants Boost Productivity

Staff working in offices are happier and more productive when those environments are enriched with plants, say researchers who conducted the largest field study of its kind. The new study suggests that a green workplace helps office workers be more physically, mentally and emotionally involved in their work. The international team, from the University of Exeter in the UK, the University of Groningen in the Netherlands and the University of Queensland in Australia, writes about the findings in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied.
