is your monitor for co or co2? i've only heard about co causing issues but if co2 is dangerous too i might have to get a monitor for my own home
My monitor is for CO2, carbon dioxide, not CO, carbon monoxide.
The research about CO2 causing problems is still fairly new, and unless the levels are wildly high it shouldn't reach the level of death or permanent disability like you'd get with CO, but there's growing research about CO2 levels impacting cognitive performance at levels as low as 1,000 ppm.
For instance, this article from The Guardian (I know, I know): https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/jul/08/indoor-carbon-dioxide-levels-could-be-a-health-hazard-scientists-warn
And some actual studies: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/healthybuildings/2021/09/09/impacts-of-indoor-air-quality-on-cognitive-function/ https://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/ehp.1104789
My air monitor actually measures a few things besides CO2 (tVOCs, which have fluctuated between "fine" and "slightly high", and particulate matter, which only rose above "fine" when my parents smoked pot for NYE), and because of that it's more expensive than CO2-only monitors, though I can link it if you're interested. It might be worth looking into, anon!
As for my own CO2 woes: My house's levels were fluctuating between 1200-1800 ppm when I made the post you're referencing. After our houseguests left this morning in a process that involved some opening of doors, however, it's fallen back down to 600-700 ppm. I'll keep an eye on it to see if it rises over time, or when we have people coming over, and this still has managed to get me to start eyeing succulents to grow indoors, but it's probably not a major issue anymore, and it was never anywhere near deadly, just not ideal for cognition.

#repost • @mitreilab Health-oriented design is not a new concept. 20th century architects saw design as a way to address health in the built environment, inspiring a new modernist architecture that prioritized hygiene, sunshine, air and overall health. With innovative technology and more recent governances, healthy buildings have become increasingly relevant for offices throughout the Covid-19 crisis. . But what are the financial benefits of healthy buildings? And how can they drive economic decision-making? Co-authors Natasha Sadikin, Dr. Andrea Chegut and Dr. Irmak Turan explored this question in their recent study and found that healthy building effective rents in 10 major U.S. cities transacted between 4.4 and 7.7% higher than those of nearby, non-healthy buildings.

A tower that reintroduces biodiversity into it's surrounding. 🐦 Concieved as a haven for birds and animals. The red aluminum mesh cladding is designed as a backdrop that reveals itself in between 21 different species of creepers, with colorful flowers interspersed among green leaves, providing food for the birds and insects🦋 🏙 Follow @eco_modern_city Architects: @woha_architects Pictures by @archi.roots 🌆 #greenarchitecture #greentower #biodiversity #biophilicdesign #sustainability #sustainabledesign #greenbuilding #naturelover #nature #tree #greenliving #sustainableliving #sustainablebuilding #ecofriendly #eco #architecture #archilovers #architecturephotography #architect #design#ecodesign #naturelover #naturedesign #ecolife #healthybuildings#building #aerialphotography#singapore #globalwarming #climatechange #singapore #singapore🇸🇬 (at Thornhill 0ntario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LCVNGHI9p/?igshid=1ugsalir9azhr

Let There Be Light! A well-lit waiting room is a good looking waiting room, so make sure you incorporate the right amount of light into your waiting area. Natural light is always the best option, but artificial skylights in the office reception area will be necessary due to structural issues. Add the right amount of overheard lighting, lamps and wall fixtures to create a well-lit space and a modern look as well. #officefitout #waitingroom #doctorsoffice #architecturaldesign #mentalhealth #wellnessdesign #healthybuildings #designforall #healthcaredesign #healthandwellbeing #hospitaldesign #healthcarefacilities #structuralengineering #doctor #nurse #interiordesign #officedecor #officespace #officedesign #waitingroomdesign #officelighting #medicaldesign #corporatedesign #officeideas #lobbydesign #dentist #orthodontics (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcoMe8WPJMy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What the USGBC and LEED has done in the past decade for energy efficient and green buildings, the IWBI and WELL Building Standard are now doing for human-centered, biophilic, and sustainable building design. See my 1st article in a 3-part series about the WELL Building Standard, this one giving an overview and history of WELL Buildings, and get ready to see WELL-certified buildings more and more in the coming years. http://chesterenergyandpolicy.com/2018/08/08/sustainable-buildings-beyond-leed-how-the-well-building-standard-addresses-health-of-the-people-inside-and-protects-the-environment-outside/ #sustainable #sustainability #greenbuilding #WELLBuilding #wellbeing #biophilicdesign #building #healthyliving #healthybuildings

Made a visit to the Wellcome Collection couple of weeks ago to see the Living With Buildings: Health and Architecture show. I was particularly taken with the Global Clinic, a project for the Doctors of the World charity, as an adaptable unit that can be easily transported and assembled anywhere in the world. . . . . #wellcomecollection #wellcometrust #londonmuseums #londongalleries #livingwithbuildings #iansinclair #healthandarchitecture #healthybuildings #globalclinic #doctorsoftheworld #mobileclinic #freeexhibitions (at Wellcome Collection) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwaysgHCRu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q2ud1vfheh63
