I am a biology student in the Ben Gurion University in Israel and our faculty building has a huge 2 story window which is not divided between the floors and would love turn it into a huge window farm! I do need some help in writing a proposal to the University on the environmental benefits (and maybe other benefits) of windowfarms.
Plants cool the air, sweep carbon-dioxide, and enrich oxygen and increase humidity. The garden also beautifies the area. For each of these that is good (i.e, will not add to operational expense) you can give credit to the garden.
