🤔 figured I should check our CO2 levels since we have a gas range. Ambient without cooking is in the 600s, vs 400s outdoors. We'll see how effective the exhaust is.

Looking up old studies shows how alarming elevated levels are:
"Harvard researchers ... found significant negative impact at 930 ppm."
"They found that, on average, a typical participant’s cognitive scores dropped 21 percent with a 400 ppm increase in CO2."

Following on the and discourse, we wondered where our range hood vents out to ... and it's right back into the kitchen. 🤦 We just moved house and we brought our electric induction stove with us, but we've been living like this for months! And the previous homeowners lived like this for years!
