Why is Indoor Air Quality very Important?
The World Health Organisation (WHO) and The United Nations (UN) state air pollution is the single largest cause of disease from the environment and that over 90% of us are exposed to pollution levels that are above WHO air quality guidelines.
A new study has proven that such products have overtaken cars as a major source of air polluting chemicals.
The amount of toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in our air is increasing, a trend that’s exaggerated by additional cleaning activities in response to COVID-19.
Even though 99.9% of COVID-19 transmission is indoors and the majority is airborne, hotels and the F&B sector are responding by spending 30% more on cleaning products. These clean surfaces, but not the air (and can in fact further pollute the air). Are you ignoring the most important metric – air quality?
The damage is the result of pollutants being carried around the body by the bloodstream. When you consider we breathe some 22,000 times a day, this makes air pollution a bigger killer than tobacco smoking.
Recent research shows that poor air quality in diners’ destinations has a significantly negative impact on online review ratings.
From feeling lethargic, to simply not ‘enjoying’ a meal as much, even though all other factors were constant, poor air quality negatively influences satisfaction ratings significantly.
Recent research showed the greatest improvement when air is cleaner regards how workers use data to make strategic decisions as well as how they plan, stay prepared, and strategize during crises, the exact skills needed to be productive.
We take about 20 minutes to process what we drink and we're so concerned about toxins in our water that we spend more on bottled water than fuel for our cars.
We breathe over 20,000 times a day (roughly 1,000 breaths during a meal).
Any pollutants we breathe can be in blood vessels in our brain within 8 seconds.
With 99.9% of COVID-19 transmission occurring indoors and mainly via the air we breathe, air is becoming more relevant than the water we drink.
