When it comes to air pollution, most of our collective attention is focused on outdoor air quality, especially with wildfires and general pollution on the rise.

But what if I told you that our indoor air can be anywhere from 200% to 500% more toxic than our outdoor air? And sometimes, according to the EPA, even 1000% more toxic than outdoor air. 

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru walks us through why indoor air quality deserves attention, as well as some free and cheap solutions to radically improve your air quality.
