Abstract
There has been a great deal of publicity about London's pollution problem and the health problems it may cause. Much less has been said about the research and the practical experiments that are being carried out across London in attempts to mitigate these problems. A "Green Wall" is a vertical construction containing pollution absorbing plants and is just one of an increasing number of innovative proposals being considered. Our distinguished panel will talk about the ongoing research and the results of trials so far.
