Long-term exposure to air pollution has also been associated with mental health problems, including depression and anxiety. It is important to note that the effects of air pollution can vary depending on the duration and intensity of exposure, as well as individual susceptibility.
Our animals suffer more from the effects of pollution since these animals, living and moving a few inches above ground level, are in greater contact with the fine dust that tends to accumulate on the ground.
Toxic air is estimated to cause premature deaths of 7 million people a year worldwide, but now attempts are being made to measure the effects on human brain activity.
Radon is a radioactive noble gas that forms naturally in rocks and soil and can migrate through the ground and spread through the air, especially indoors. There are both active and passive sensors for radon detection, and the main differences between the two relate to how and when they are recorded.
Constant monitoring of indoor air quality is the only tool we have to prevent all risks associated with pollution and preserve the well-being of buildings and people.
September 7 marks International Clean Air Day for Blue Skies. Established in 2019 by the UN General Assembly, this day aims to raise awareness of the problem of air quality, promoting initiatives and actions to improve it.
Radon is a naturally occurring, odorless and colorless radioactive gas found throughout the earth’s crust. These characteristics make it undetectable by our senses and therefore difficult to detect.
A study by U.S. researchers highlights the fact that in high climatic conditions, the air we let into our homes from outside causes a chemical reaction that is very dangerous to ours.
