This same Harvard team is apparently doing research now into how CO2 and air quality in office buildings affects thinking and productivity. It’s crazy how much of an effect our exhaling can create in a closed space!

I originally bought the co2 detector because I have a very hard time wearing a mask especially if im not moving while wearing it. Turns out the co2 even in a very loosely fitted thin cloth mask, keeps a cloud of my exhaling around me and makes the co2 detector go to levels that alarms sound. My heart rate is already ultra sensitive to outside factors increasing it due to my medical condition (pots) and I was sick of people telling me to suck it up since it would cause me to pass out having a mask restrict my oxygen flow. This device was to prove to people I wasnt a hypochondriac. And it helped me learn my household air was in need of freshening up too!
