Our researcher Magda Posani gave a TEDx talk on healthy and sustainable building design at – TEDx Countdown event in Zurich
Asthma, dry eyes, itchy skin, sore throat, and difficulty concentrating – these are just a few of the health issues caused by poor air quality and incorrect humidity levels in modern, energy-efficient buildings. How did we reach this point? Can we do better?
On the 2. of July, Dr. Posani from the Chair of Sustainable Construction of ETH Zurich delivered a TEDx talk on this topic. She explored how the historical evolution of European construction techniques led to sick buildings. By understanding our past and learning from our mistakes, we can move forward and create breathing, healthier indoor environments with very low environmental footprints.
