Andrew Whelton said: "There is no [explicit] federal requirement that says 'if you have benzene showing up in your water distribution, you have to do anything about it,'" "So, by law, they're in compliance even though they've got hazardous contamination in their drinking water being delivered to customers,"

Ray Palmer said: "Quick screening questionnaires are used routinely in clinics today, e.g., for quality of life or substance abuse, or reactions to antibiotics or latex, and we believe chemical intolerance also needs to be assessed routinely, given its high prevalence,"

Kerry Kelly said: “On average, people spend about 7% of their time idling,”
ksl Tuesday, September 15, 2020 4:11:00 AM CEST
Kerry Kelly said: “One of the major reasons is they show you that you’re speeding in a way that others can see you’re being shown that you’re speeding, so it’s a violation of what’s called social norm,” “In my terms, it is maybe a little bit of peer pressure to make good choices”

Kerry Kelly said: “It is sort of like sunburning your lungs,” “And so if you couple something like ozone with elevated levels of particulate matter, that is kind of a double-whammy in terms of your health”
ksl Tuesday, September 15, 2020 4:11:00 AM CEST
Kerry Kelly said: “Combustion is a big source of particulate matter, and particulate matter is one of the key drivers of adverse health effects. Probably thousands of studies have linked elevated levels of fine particulate matter to increases in heart attack, lung disease, premature death,” “When you’re combusting a solid material, like wood, and you’re doing it in a pretty inefficient way, like burning forests, you’re going to generate a lot of particulate matter and a lot of volatile organic compounds”

John Putnam said: “We will stay the course with minimizing emissions in Colorado. However, the EPA’s rollback of these reasonable, scientifically supported regulations will increase emissions of methane, volatile organic compounds and other pollutants in the states and Native American nations upwind of and in Colorado,”

Nancy Pfund added: “Just as Tesla and SolarCity offered a ‘zero sacrifice’ approach to sustainability, delivering superior driving and electricity experiences as they slashed carbon footprints, Bellwether is poised to do the same: on-site electric roasting not only significantly reduces the carbon footprint of coffee, it delivers a better-tasting cup of coffee, something coffee lovers around the world can enthusiastically endorse”

Nicola Carslaw says: "We spend 90% of our time indoors in developed countries, and yet all the focus, when it comes to pollution, is on the 10% of our time that we spend outdoors,"

Nicola Carslaw says: "If you plug in an air freshener that’s constantly releasing VOCs, we know that they can react indoors to form particles," "If you told people they are being exposed to particles outdoors from vehicles they would get quite annoyed and probably want to avoid certain roads – but they would then happily plug in an air freshener not realising that they are also generating particles"

Nicola Carslaw says: "Cooking and cleaning are two of the main sources of indoor pollution," "When you cook, you generate nitrogen oxide and particles, which are the same pollutants that you find outdoors – just a different source"

Nicolas Bellouin says: “It’s an interesting study but we have to be careful because meteorology can be anomalous for reasons other than changes in emissions,”

Nicolas Bellouin says: “We’re not really sure how effective those soot particles are at nucleating ice,”

Nicolas Bellouin explains: “In order to try and rule out changes due to anomalous weather conditions we search for days from the past that have similar meteorology to the lockdown days,” “This is a time-consuming and complex process”

Alastair Lewis says: “There has been quite a bit learnt about PM 2.5 [small particulate pollution], reinforcing that much of it is secondary in nature, and that simply reducing transport volumes doesn’t have a huge impact on particulates,”
