dc.description.abstract	World is facing many problem due to increasing atmospheric temperature and air pollution. Excess of waste, heat release, lack of vegetation, high thermal capacity material in urban areas are several reasons for global warming. The green spaces are a sustainable solution for this problem. Out of all green spaces green wall is a better option considering the space limitations in urban areas.Green walls are of two types as green facades and living walls. In this research the living type wall is experimented for its capacity to improve thermal comfort and air quality. Also the varying abilities of different plant species in heat control and air quality control is studied. By this research most effective plants for a detached green wall and effective distance of the wall are identified
