Air Quality Matters
Air Quality Matters inside our buildings and out.
This Podcast is about Indoor Air Quality, Outdoor Air Quality, Ventilation, and Health in our homes, workplaces, and education settings.
And we already have many of the tools we need to make a difference.
The conversations we have and how we share this knowledge is the key to our success.
We speak with the leaders at the heart of this sector about them and their work, innovation and where this is all going.
Air quality is the single most significant environmental risk we face to our health and wellbeing, and its impacts on us, our friends, our families, and society are profound.
From housing to the workplace, education to healthcare, the quality of the air we breathe matters.

Trailer: The Air Quality Matters Podcast
If you are lucky enough to live to 80 years of age, you will spend close to 70 of those indoors. 55 years of that time in your own home.
The impact of our built environment on our long-term health is as inseparable as the relationship between the air we breathe inside and the quality of the air outside.
It’s a problem that requires a paradigm shift in how we think about it, design, manage and resource it. Better air quality and ventilation in our built environment is a puzzle that will require science and engineering, policy and innovation to solve.
Over the last two decades, I have had the privilege to talk with and even consider as friends some of the brightest minds, innovators and leaders in the field of air quality, ventilation and the built environment.
I hope to bring some of these conversations to you in this podcast. Conversation with the people at the heart of this sector. About them and their organisations. What they are working on, where this is going.

Welcome. I'm Simon Jones, and this is the Air Quality Matters podcast.
It matters because the quality of the air we breathe is one of the key environmental risks we face. It costs us and our families, our community and the health of our buildings in almost incalculable ways. If you're lucky enough to live to 80 years of age, you will spend close to 70 of those indoors 55 years of that time in your own home.
The impact of our built environment on our long-term health is profound. It's a problem that requires a paradigm shift in how we think about it, design, manage and resource it. Better air quality and ventilation in our built environment is a puzzle that will require science and engineering policy and innovation to solve.
Over the last two decades, I have had the privilege to talk with, and even consider as friends, some of the brightest minds, innovators and leaders in the field of air quality and ventilation. My hope is to bring some of these conversations to you in this podcast Conversations with the people at the heart of this sector, about them and their organisations, what they are working on and where this is all going.
And, importantly, break these conversations out of their respective echo chambers and to a wider audience, from housing to the workplace, education to healthcare. This is a subject that's important to us all.
So my promise to you is this no charts, formulas, civil service speak or technical jargon, just a plain English common sense conversation about air quality ventilation and why it matters.
