What will you discover?
A quick air fact from Aarav that most grown-ups get wrong.
Key takeaways
- Closed rooms trap the pollution made inside them.
- Cooking without an exhaust adds a lot of fine particles.
- Opening two windows on opposite sides clears a room fastest.
- Children breathe more air per kilo of body weight than adults, so indoor air matters more for them.
