Voiceover: It's time for Science or Fiction.
Item #1: A new review of published research concludes that one medium-sized potted plant per average household room purifies the air as well as standard ventilation. [6]
Item #2: Researchers detail the mechanisms by which some bacteria directly feed on electricity for energy.[7]
Item #3: A new study finds that flagging news items on Facebook as fake had no effect on whether subjects thought they were true, which was entirely determined by alignment with their existing beliefs, regardless of their party affiliation.[8]
