🧵 1/7 Well, we’re off to a strong start to the school year. Kiddo injured his finger in PE and, after making it through the rest of the day with a very swollen finger, we decided we should probably get it X-rayed.

🧵 1/ Yesterday was the International Day of Clean Air for blue skies. 🌍 I missed it because the day was absolutely rammed 😅 But clean air matters today too, and tomorrow, and every day after that.

Bright blue-sky graphic for the International Day of Clean Air for blue skies. Large text reads “Clean air matters. Outside and inside. Today, tomorrow, and every day after that.” Four coloured icons represent healthier people, stronger economies, a cleaner environment and brighter futures. A green cityscape sits beneath the blue sky, with text explaining that clean air supports health, comfort, concentration and wellbeing and can reduce exposure to harmful pollutants and infectious particles.

regardless of a person's view on various pathogens, just the visable difference between a used filter and a new filter should motivate everyone to advocate for better indoor air quality.

two air filters lying on a wodden floor. one has been used and is dark grey. the other one is white because it hasn't yet been used.

Today, Clean Air Where delivered indoor air quality training at Lessness Heath Primary 💚 Staff learned how to use monitoring, ventilation and filtration to support healthier classrooms, wellbeing and learning. One teacher immediately brought a CO₂ monitor back into use. #TeacherCPD

The government has launched a free air-quality alert service. Choose an area that matters to you and get an SMS or email when pollution is forecast to be high. Useful for planning exercise, routes, ventilation and reducing exposure. check-air-quality.service.gov.uk #AirQuality #AirPollution

A very well-ventilated day out at the British Library. 📚 CO₂ stayed mostly around 500–800 ppm despite it being busy. Good for comfort and concentration, and useful for reducing the build-up of infectious particles too. #IndoorAirQuality #Ventilation #CleanAirWhere

🧵 1/7 Air pollution isn’t fixed. It can change by the hour, between neighbourhoods and even from one street to the next. Knowing where to look makes it much easier to factor air quality into everyday decisions 👇

We often talk about CO₂, but NO₂ can also affect the air we breathe. Here’s a quick guide to where it comes from, why it matters and how to reduce exposure. 👇 #IndoorAirQuality #AirQuality #NO2 #CleanAirWhere #RespiratoryHealth

Clean Air Where @cleanairwhere.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

A US study of 97 households found replacing gas stoves with induction was associated with: • 70% lower indoor NO₂ • 70% fewer asthma-related hospital visits • 80% fewer days missed from work or school The study ended early, so larger studies are still needed to confirm these findings. Link below

🌡️ Most people are surprised to learn that the NHS advises against using electric fans once indoor temperatures exceed 35°C. Fans don’t cool the air - they cool you by helping sweat evaporate. Once the air becomes hotter than your skin, that cooling effect is no longer effective.

New research finds “half or more of the gap in life outcomes between older and younger siblings can be attributed to pathogens inadvertently brought home by older siblings,” and while we didn’t really need more reasons to clean the air in schools, it’s one more reason.

Parents of children with wheeze or asthma: Have you noticed air pollution making symptoms worse? Or is it mainly viruses in your experience? This little inhaler is very new to us and we’re still figuring it all out.

Filtering the air may help prevent your own infection from becoming more severe If everyone in a household becomes infected with the same virus, does it help to isolate from each other and can you be a danger to yourself? Read on to find out... 🧪🧵1/ #AirQuality #IAQ #Ventilation #Infection #COVID

This grouped bar chart, titled "COVID Positive Abnormal Chest CT by Air Quality Setting", displays the percentage of abnormal chest CT scans among COVID-positive patients across three different tiers of air quality control. The graph compares overall and asymptomatic cases, illustrating a clear downward trend in the percentage of abnormal scans as air filtration and ventilation efficiency improve from household levels to high-efficiency aerosol control.

If it’s hotter outside, you’re letting heat in. Open windows early morning and late evening instead. Keep the blinds closed during the day. Closed windows can also mean rising CO₂ indoors - so if everyone feels sluggish, it might not just be the heat. #Heatwave #IndoorAirQuality #CleanAirWhere

🧵1/4 Children with SEND are disproportionately affected by their environment. We talk about calm spaces, sensory rooms and adapted teaching. But we are missing something important - indoor air quality.

Clean Air Where @cleanairwhere.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

Brilliant initiative - this is exactly what schools need. At Clean Air Where we are working on the training side of this - helping staff understand why IAQ matters so the standards actually land. Excited to be part of this.
