📢UPDATE ON AIR QUALITY EFFORTS IN DISTRICT📢

It just keeps getter better, folks.

The California Department of Public Health (CDPD) & the County of San Diego were looking for a school to host a training for ALL San Diego school leaders & facilities staff on #IAQ in schools.
🧵 Image
The invitation came across my district leader's desk around the time we were having another meeting about how we can improve indoor air quality in our schools.

They jumped at the opportunity and will be hosting the event next week.

Why is this so exciting?
- school leaders & facilities staff need to be educated on #IAQ
- it's free
- they'll be doing a hands-on walk through of one of our campuses to show everyone how to check/improve ventilation/filtration
- 2 options of days/locations to attend
- I was invited to attend :)
If you're in the San Diego area, please pass this on to your school leaders.

If you're not in the San Diego area, reach out to your state public health department and nudge them to do something similar.

I've blacked out the address for privacy, but reach out and I'll share. Image
Do I dare bring a #corsirosenthalbox with me?
Or a few different models? 😉

@kprather88 @joeyfox85 @CaliforniaCodes @EricTopol @JimRosenthal4 @CorsIAQ @ocnj3
One training will be next Wednesday 12/6 in central San Diego area.
Another one in North County on Thursday 12/7.

#NCTMDC23 I’m on my way!
I’ll be live tweeting throughout the weekend about the air quality in our shared spaces.

Why?

Cuz I care about your health and educating people about respiratory virus transmission. Here is your tutorial:

This is a CO2 monitor. We exhale CO2.
🧵 Image
CO2 levels indicate how much of everyone’s exhaled breath is trapped in our shared spaces.

The higher the levels, the more backwash breath you are sucking in from other people.

I’m waiting to take off right now. This is not good. Image
That’s why I look like this right now. Image

Next-Gen #corsirosenthalbox is here!

💨 Quieter!!
💨 Faster to build
💨 Simpler to build
💨 Still low-cost
💨 Small floor space
💨 Longer cord
💨 Only one simple connection
💨 Still highly effective & efficient

Here's how I built a new version with modular PC fans: Image
Here's everything I started with.
- Four 16x20 Merv-13 filters
- Two AC-Infinity Airplate S-9 Mount Fan/Wall Fan System (dimensions 17.2x6.1x1.3 in) Image
With this model you make a rectangle from your filters (not a square like you do for your 20" box fan model)

This will create the perfect space for your PC fans to fit snug on the top.

(Remember to put a solid base on the bottom) Image

⛪️Clean Air is Coming to Church!!⛪️

I had the most hopeful meeting today with folks at Church HQ about getting cleaner air for the 17 million folks who are members of our global church.

They have3⃣recommendations they are moving forward on. All are beyond my wildest dreams.

🧵
How did we get here?

For the past 3 years we have been gathering data (CO2 readings) in our church buildings across the world. We collected hundreds of samples and gathered all the data in a massive spreadsheet.

@citlanx has been the brains and muscle behind this project.
Our efforts to improve #IAQ locally have failed miserably. (Maddening stories for another time.) But the dozens of folks on our team have continued to collect data, often using extreme measures.

One of my MANY emails eventually got sent to Church HQ (b/c of my legal threats).

🔥INCREDIBLE meeting with the superintendent 🔥
re: clean air in schools!

- My week-before email campaign to prepare them
- What we discussed in the meeting
- Their suggestions for next steps (they had great ideas!)

🧵
Before I share a new resource ...

I have under-appreciated (& under-shared) the value of working with compassionate leaders with high levels of moral integrity.

My kids' principal & superintendent are exceptional human beings. They are caring leaders. I respect them deeply.

I've shared before how I was able to secure a meeting with the superintendent to talk about clean indoor air in classrooms.

You can review that thread here:

Guess who has a meeting scheduled with the superintendent to discuss the importance of clean indoor air in schools?

How did I finally capture their attention to where THEY asked ME for a meeting?
The turning point was this board meeting:

I was the first to speak during public comment. I had a #corsirosenthalbox with me that I placed right in front of the board members. I had a 3 min speech prepared. At the last minute, I tossed it out.

Why?x.com/LieslMcconchie…
Because immediately before public comment someone gave a depressing report of absenteeism and millions of $$ they've lost due to skyrocketing absence rates.

I seized the moment and shifted my comments to be on the connection between #IAQ and absentee rates.

2 yrs ago today, I tried to send a CO2 monitor to school with my son for the first time. It didn't go well.

Here's what happened, how I responded, and how things are going now.

Persistence + Education = Successful advocacy
🧵
What happened?

My first attempt at getting CO2 levels from our #Aranet4 was a failure.

(Looking back, I should have done more educating first.)

x.com/LieslMcconchie…
How did I respond?

(I was angry, and felt I had a right to know about the #IAQ in my kids' classrooms during an airborne pandemic.)

I tried again the very next day, with some extra security measures ... and a bit of snark.
