Our stakeholder meetings are some of the most energizing experiences that we have in our work. This meeting laid out some of the key concepts related to the impact of outdoor pollutants on indoor air quality. We used this opportunity to present a draft white paper focused on multifamily and school buildings in order to get feedback from our diverse stakeholders.
