Some great presentations at HBN launch. Environmental justice for indoor environments, ventilation & indoor AQ in schools, regulating indoor environments, impact of Indonesian peat fires on indoor exposure. Shocking statistic from US - almost as much time spent in transport environments as outdoors.
