Air is our most essential resource; clean air guarantees the fundamental right to physical integrity.
We must recognise and treat air as a resource in the same way as water.
We spend 90% of our time indoors. It is time to focus more closely on ensuring good indoor air quality.
Gibt es eigentlich Erkenntnisse zur Transmissibilität von #SarsCov2 in Indoor-Schwimmbädern? Welche Auswirkungen hat das Chlor im Wasser, in der Luft?
Join PHAN and Air Support Project for a discussion on being clean-air-aware and COVID-safe while traveling. We'll talk about how people have successfully traveled while being clean-air-aware, specific masks and other tools that folks like to use, and dealing with security and other passengers. Guest speakers will be Julie Lam with Mask Together America, clean-air advocate Keith Muise, and mask advocate Daniell Kinder.
#AskFedi #IAQ #CleanIndoorAir #HVAC folks:
My apartment's HVAC system, which is connected to an individual rooftop unit with its own fresh air intake ducts--is currently down. My understanding is that the issue is with the control module that is connected all the in-apartment on this floor, so all of our units are turned off.
I have a CR box air purifier, and a small portable one with miniature #HEPA filters, and an #Aranet4 air quality monitor.
Maintenance have installed a one-hose portable AC unit, with thermal tape around the edges of the open window. From the perspective of minimizing aerosol concentration, what is the best approach with respect to fan speed/mode options, i.e., always on, or only when cooling; blocking the undercut in the door, and opening a window in a different room?
I had also considered not using the portable AC at all; minimizing opening of the door and venting via windows with colder air at night.
Advocacy opportunity 📣 The Metro Vancouver region has a survey seeking input on their 2027 Budget and Five-Year Financial Plan.
Metro Vancouver deals with things like wastewater, air quality, regional planning, providing below-market rental housing and more. (Note that they don’t just serve Vancouver - they serve many municipalities, which are listed in the survey.)
Take the survey until March 27, and be sure to let them know that you care about:
- wastewater testing / monitoring for communicable diseases
- air quality improvements, including indoor air quality and aligning building codes with up-to-date air quality standards like ASHRAE 241!
Take the survey: https://engage.zencity.io/metrovancouver/en/engagements/f9f277fa-e5da-4654-8df3-faa38cc4d4bf
