Globally this is correct, since it's all the same planet with the same atmosphere. However, you know how, when you turn on the heat or the AC, the air temperature inside is different from the air temperature outside? How do you explain that, if it's all the same air? |
What exact risk do you see your child incurring if they go to school? |
Thursday was a planned day off for NYC schools anyway. They’re not closing because of air pollution. |
Air temperature is different from air quality. You can have warm polluted air and cold polluted air. It’s still polluted. |
What isn’t true? Is your house completely sealed off? It would be weird if it was. You realize that the air from outside is still getting inside your house? Keep your kid home all week if you want. Makes no difference to me. But realize that your kid is breathing in the same air that the rest of the kids are breathing in, at home or at school. |
Yes, you can. Similarly, you can have polluted air inside but non-polluted air outside, or, alternatively, non-polluted air inside but polluted air outside. |
Is that allowed in Florida? |
Don't you guys use filters? |
lol same. |
Should we all be running the ac to filter the air? |
Exactly - this is why you see all of these pictures from inside people's homes and apartments in NYC where they can't see 5 feet in front just like it is outside on the street. Pollution levels of air outside are always exactly the same as those inside. It's science. |
Don't turn on your window unit. If you have a central unit, you can just run the fan. |
| You b1tches did this with your giant Tahoes and Suburbans. Your poor babies, oh well I guess they will have to figure it out. |
LOL No, no you can’t. Doesn’t work that way. |
| Houses are very leaky by design. As warm air rises and leaves the house, outside air is drawn in through cracks, door frames, window frames, etc. Unless you house has good filtration and air exchange, the air quality is mostly the same as the outside. |
