Clearing the air on indoor pollution

Article Abstract:

Narrow-minded building owners and corporate managers are the biggest obstacle to the remediation of indoor air pollution. Too often these individuals respond defensively when confronted with the problem. Instead, they should be gathering facts and soliciting the opinion of experts. To insure that managers respond rationally, complainants should enlist a credible spokesperson. A responsible manager will promise decisive action and make no unrealistic commitments, choosing the group meeting as his mode of communication.
