Use breaks actively to improve CO₂ levels (air out and change the environment)
In a busy everyday life, it can be difficult to remember to take breaks and think about the indoor climate. But the fact is that our surroundings have a great influence on our health and well-being. According to the Danish Health Authority, a good indoor climate is essential for both children and adults, especially in school environments, where children spend a large part of their time.
Air quality also matters when we work from home. A report from the Knowledge Center Portal shows that poor indoor air quality can negatively affect productivity and well-being. Therefore, it is important to be aware of how we can improve air quality even when we work from home.
According to Tænk , one of the most important things we can do to improve the indoor climate is to ventilate. By creating good ventilation, we can reduce the concentration of CO₂ in the air and thus create a healthier environment to work or learn in.
The Danish Working Environment Authority also recommends taking breaks and ensuring good ventilation in the workplace. This can have a major impact on both well-being and productivity.
FAQ about using breaks to improve air:
Why is it important to take breaks and get some air?
According to experts, poor air quality can negatively affect our health and well-being. By taking breaks and getting outside, we can improve indoor air quality and create a healthier environment.
How can I ensure good ventilation at home?
You can ensure good ventilation at home by opening windows and doors regularly and ensuring that air circulates freely in the room.
How can I actively use breaks to improve CO₂ levels?
You can use your breaks to take a walk outside, air out indoors, or simply get some fresh air into the room. This way, you can create a better indoor climate and improve air quality.
Using breaks to actively improve CO₂ levels (airing out and changing the environment) is an important part of creating a healthy and comfortable environment both at home and at work. By being aware of air quality and taking active steps to improve it, we can all contribute to a healthier and more sustainable future.
