Air quality is getting worse for some Central Pennsylvania communities. WITF’s Rachel McDevitt has more on the latest State of the Air report. Pennsylvania state leaders are enacting a plan to reduce rates of maternal morbidity and mortality across the Commonwealth. It includes making it easier for women and children to access health care, nutrition and other social services. Meantime, in Philadelphia, healthcare outreach workers are trying to offer that help in an unusual place: laundromats. This past weekend marked the 250th anniversary of the first shots fired in the American Revolution--and a special exhibit opened at the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia. The two Democrats running for Lancaster mayor will debate this Saturday. And the U.S. Justice Department has withdrawn a lawsuit accusing Hazleton and its leaders of violating federal law by thwarting the election of Hispanic City Council candidates.

Director of environmental health at the American Lung Association, Kevin Stewart, calls in to talk about the air quality in our city

What if your home is making you sick—and you don't even know it?

Nokukhanya Mntambo speaks to Dr Sduduzo Cossa, General Practitioner at Medipark24 Medical Centre, about air pollution being a significant concern in South Africa, with the combustion of fossil fuels being a major source of pollutants. Particulate matter (PM2.5) poses a significant health threat, particularly to vulnerable populations. The country has made progress in air quality policy developments, but more action is needed to meet desired air quality targets and achieve Sustainable Development Goals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Clean Air Act has been an essential tool for reducing air pollution in the United States. But standard estimation methods may overstate its impact, according to a paper in the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy. Authors Lutz Sager and Gregor Singer reexamined the 2005 regulations targeting fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and found that improvements in air quality were closer to a 3 percent reduction in pollutants rather than the 10 percent suggested by conventional methods. However, they also found that the benefits from cleaner air may be larger than previous estimates suggested. Sager and Singer recently spoke with Tyler Smith about methods for properly estimating regulatory impacts that feature time trends and the implications for other measures based on estimates of air quality improvements.

Linda Weiner from Breathe Better STL, joins Megan Lynch and points out there are still concerns about air quality across the region. The group would like to see more monitoring by the EPA.

Spring has sprung, and with it comes the sneezes and snuffles of allergy season! If you're anything like me, you know that clean indoor air can be a game changer when it comes to surviving the pollen apocalypse. So, I've gathered my top three quick tips to help us all breathe a little easier this spring. First up, make sure that stovetop fan is doing its thing—venting outside, not just blowing hot air back at you! Then, let's tackle that dust bunny army lurking in our homes; a good spring clean is like giving your air quality a spa day. And lastly, don't forget about your bathroom fan; it needs to work overtime after those steamy showers. Tune in for all the details and let's kick those allergens to the curb together!Spring is here, and with it comes the dreaded allergy season! Eric G dives into three top-notch tips to help you breathe easier indoors, making your space a haven from all that pollen and dust. First up, he emphasizes the importance of your stove's exhaust fan. Seriously, turning that thing on before you even think about cooking is like giving your indoor air quality a high-five! It helps to whisk away all those cooking fumes and potential allergens right out of your home. Think of it as a spa day for your air—let it inhale fresh outdoor vibes, minus the kitchen odors! Next on the agenda? Spring cleaning! No, not the kind where you shove everything under the bed and call it a day. Eric encourages a thorough decluttering and cleaning routine to combat dust bunnies that have set up camp in your home. He even shares his love for robotic vacuums—because who has time to vacuum when you could be binge-watching your favorite show? Keeping a clean space is like giving your lungs a little spring break from that pesky indoor pollution. Finally, let's chat about your bathroom fan. Eric reminds us that it's not just there for show! Running it after showers helps eliminate moisture, keeping mold at bay. And if your bathroom fan is a relic from the past, it might be time for an upgrade. We're talking about a fan that actually moves air like it means business! So grab a comfy chair, tune in, and let's clear the air—literally!Takeaways: Make sure to turn on your kitchen stovetop fan before you start cooking to improve air quality. Cleaning your home regularly not only reduces clutter but also helps minimize dust and allergens. A robust bath fan is essential; run it for at least 20 minutes after showers to reduce humidity. Always check outdoor air quality before opening windows in spring to avoid bringing in allergens.

Frederik Hendriksen is the co-founder of Rensair, pioneering the world's first air quality ecosystem to cut carbon, costs, and pollutants through next-generation ventilation technology. Rensair's connected solutions optimize existing HVAC systems, reducing energy costs while delivering cleaner, healthier indoor air—without expensive infrastructure upgrades. Their tech traces back to Frederik's father, a ventilation engineer, who originally developed a standalone air purification system for hospital operating rooms, and to help Frederik's twin brother manage severe asthma. Inspired by this innovation, Frederik and his team are now hacking HVAC to tackle the climate crisis and transform building ventilation, ushering in a new era of carbon efficiency, cost savings, and clean indoor air.(01:49) - The tech behind Rensair(04:29) - Impact of HVAC on building energy consumption(06:00) - Rensair's energy efficiency solutions(13:31) - Feature | Market Stadium - Book a demo: Optimize your Multifamily & Single-family market analysis(17:51) - Business model & partnerships(19:20) - Challenges & opportunities in Climate Tech(24:23) - Leveraging AI for indoor air quality(29:44) - Feature: Blueprint 2025: The Future of Real Estate - Register now(31:55) - Greenland & Climate change(34:16) - Collaboration Superpower: Niels Ryberg Finsen (Wiki)
