The Conservative government has had 5 years to #CleanTheAir in #OntEd schools. Ford has prioritized alcohol over student learning conditions, again and again.

We deserve a government that will finally prioritize our kids.

Props to @chandrapasma.bsky.social for her advocacy.

Pandemic money was meant to clear the air in Ontario schools. Did it work? Where did the funding go?

If governments and organisations attended to indoor air quality, we’d be less reliant on masks to prevent transmission of respiratory infections.

Not gonna make a comment about other airborne things and who said what about them not being airborne. Just clean the air FFS.

Clean air is a human right!

Air pollution is a silent killer, claiming at least 7 million lives annually and fueling a growing health crisis.

Health and care workers are calling on governments, businesses, and leaders to take urgent and decisive action.

"AQI is far from a perfect indicator of whether the air outside is okay," writes @andrewmoseman.bsky.social.

The skies may be clear, but don't put away your air filters just yet, Angelenos.

This is important info 👇

If you bought an off-the-shelf HEPA filter, you need to check if you're getting the right level of air filtration out of it.
Many manufacturers will inflate room sizes and CADR figures.

Before you buy an air purifier, always check the actual CADR figures and the recommended room size.

Visit the ENERGYSTAR database www.energystar.gov/productfinde...

Although I suspect supplies will be hard to find, here's instructions on building a HEPA purifier (Corsi Rosenthal Box). A good chunk of Ventura County is unhealthy air tonight, and it would be useful to have one or two of these running to protect your lungs. #airquality #aqi #CorsiRosenthalBox […]

Emergency department visits for kids ages 5-17 for respiratory viruses are trending up in Virginia on the most recent update. Schools started back just a few weeks ago, this shows how important it is that we clean the air in schools. Cleaner air will result in less infections.

So here's a tip for you that use humidifiers.

We just did an indoor air quality test with our @atmotube.com monitor.

With tap water, the air was "severely polluted"

With our reverse osmosis water it was on the edge of good/moderate.

There's a reason they suggest using distilled water.

If you have air filters in your LA home, it's a good time to change those filters - I promise they're clogged and ready

We can just vacuum this 💩 out of the air.
When a team of doctors, scientists and engineers at Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the University of Cambridge placed an air filtration machine in COVID-19 wards, they found that it removed almost all traces of airborne SARS-CoV-2.

So, changing the air filters on the Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation System in Cork City.

Wait until the end for outside air filter. This is after 2.5 months, with coal fires only really kicking off in October or so.
