jmclnx: Very interesting article, but remember, making a room more airy will not mitigate the long term effects of CO2 on the Earth.Older people will remember the push to make your house more energy efficient. So you have a choice, higher energy bill or higher indoors C02.So what is needed, move off fossil fuels. I remember seeing during the covid lockdown, C02 Levels did nor raise for the first time in decades. That is because auto traffic decreased a lot. Right now I believe we are on our way to +2.5C :(

jadbox: Gas stove, oven, and clothes dryer with polyester/nylon will all cause my air quality sensor to go into the red.Some takeaways:- be very careful of what oils you're using when cooking food to ensure they are not turning volatile- try to avoid using a dryer for non-natural poly clothes and use hang drying instead
Thorrez: >So, seems you have a choice, higher energy bills or higher indoors C02.An HRV or ERV can help with that.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_ventilation
