How the Campaign Works
Ambassadors nominate 3-5 indoor venues for participation in the air sampling investigation.
Ambassadors receive easy-to-use air sampling kits to collect samples during visits to these locations.
Ambassadors monitor the location for a minimum period of 1 hour.
After data collection, samples are returned for analysis, and results are shared openly via an interactive map on the campaign website.
Explore the types of venues being monitored and the pollutants being tracked to better understand the air you breathe.
