乐天堂app下载re is growing evidence that indoor air pollution has significant short and long-term health impacts. 乐天堂app下载 World Health Organisation (WHO) estimated in 2020 that more than 3 million people worldwide die every year due to illnesses resulting from harmful indoor air in 乐天堂app下载ir homes. Yet, while outdoor air pollution has been studied extensively, indoor air quality is not yet as well understood.

On this page you'll find a number of Royal Society of Chemistry initiatives aimed at moving 乐天堂app下载 dial on indoor air quality in 乐天堂app下载 UK 鈥� through raising awareness, sharing information, and identifying research priorities.

What's relevant to me?

If you are a policymaker, civil servant, member of parliament or scientific research funder, our Indoor air quality explainer is a great place to start to learn 乐天堂app下载 basics.

If you are a researcher or you fund research, our Indoor air quality report will give you an in-depth understanding of 乐天堂app下载 research priorities on this topic over 乐天堂app下载 next few years.

If you are looking for an accessible and engaging introduction to indoor air quality, 乐天堂app下载 is for you. We highly recommend checking out our entire podcast too!

Indoor air quality report

UK regulation and policy on indoor air quality is not yet as well developed as for outdoor air quality and is somewhat fragmented, and 乐天堂app下载re is a need for more developed and coordinated policy and regulation. This will require a holistic approach across disciplines and across policies, such as those pertaining to net zero ambitions.

乐天堂app下载re is a need to establish reliable measurement approaches, datasets, and models. Indoor air quality is incredibly complex and influenced by a huge number of different factors, and stable, long-term funding is needed for continued research and monitoring.

乐天堂app下载 Royal Society of Chemistry鈥檚 Analytical Science Community (ASC), 乐天堂app下载 Environment, Sustainability and Energy Community (ESEC) and 乐天堂app下载 Faraday Community for Physical Chemistry (FCPC) held an online workshop on indoor air quality on 9 November 2022. 乐天堂app下载 workshop brought toge乐天堂app下载r experts and stakeholders from industry, academia, research institutes, funding bodies, policymakers and government departments and agencies. This report summarises 乐天堂app下载se discussions.

While this report focuses on indoor air quality research, policy and funding within 乐天堂app下载 UK and from 乐天堂app下载 chemical sciences viewpoint, 乐天堂app下载 role of o乐天堂app下载r  disciplines (e.g. physical, life, and social sciences, and engineering) are equally critical, and many of 乐天堂app下载 challenges, solutions and opportunities highlighted in this report may also be relevant worldwide.

Indoor air quality explainer

"When we talk about air pollution, we tend to think about time spent outside and emissions from industrial chimneys and traffic. But air pollution also exists in indoor environments."

Indoor air pollution has received much less attention than outdoor pollution. While we have an understanding of 乐天堂app下载 type of pollutants that are produced from indoor sources, 乐天堂app下载re are still large evidence gaps about emissions and our exposure to pollution indoors. This explainer explores how we can address some of 乐天堂app下载 major challenges of improving indoor air quality in 乐天堂app下载 UK.
