Welcome back for an episode with a recurring guest! Over the past few years, the air quality in urban India has gone from a seasonal problem in certain cities to a growing concern among the entire urban population in India. This can be seen in the AQI or Air Quality Index in most Indian cities, with more days of the year in the "severe" and harmful categories.
Air pollution has many health effects, both direct and indirect, along with other factors like particulate matter.
So what steps can be taken to mitigate the impact of poor air quality, both outdoors and in the spaces at which we spend the most time, our homes and workplaces?
To answer this, we thought it would be the perfect time to reconnect with one of out first ever gusts on this podcast, and get an update on the issue of air quality in India! To talk to us about this, we have a returning guest in Mr. Abhinav Gupta, CEO of Active Buildings.
With a background in engineering, Mr. Gupta started Active Buildings in 2016, to work on smart solutions that increase both the productivity and wellness of building occupants. In this episode Mr. Gupta revisits the current state of air quality in urban India, and talks about some interventions they have deployed in commercial, residential and even public spaces.
