Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ventilation is an indispensable aspect of our built environment, yet it often operates quietly in the background, unseen and unheard. It is the invisible force that breathes life into our homes, workplaces, and public spaces, influencing our health, comfort, and overall well-being. The quality of the air we breathe indoors profoundly affects our lives, from our ability to concentrate and be productive to our susceptibility to illnesses and allergies. This book delves into the world of ventilation, unveiling its significance, principles, and applications across diverse settings. Whether you are a homeowner seeking to enhance indoor air quality, an architect striving to create sustainable buildings, or an engineer working on cutting-edge ventilation technologies, this book is a comprehensive guide to understanding, implementing, and optimizing ventilation systems. Ventilation is not a static field; it evolves in response to advancing technologies, changing environmental concerns, and the pursuit of healthier, more efficient indoor environments. In each chapter, we explore different facets of ventilation, from its role in mitigating the spread of respiratory diseases like COVID-19 to its pivotal role in green building practices aimed at reducing our carbon footprint. As we navigate the intricate world of ventilation, we emphasize best practices, emerging trends, and innovative solutions that are shaping the future of indoor environments. Whether you are seeking practical advice for improving ventilation in your home, insights into sustainable building design, or a glimpse into the technologies that will revolutionize the field, this book equips you with the knowledge to make informed decisions and contribute to creating spaces that prioritize health, comfort, and environmental responsibility. In our exploration of ventilation, we aim to illuminate the importance of this often-overlooked aspect of our daily lives. By understanding its principles and embracing best practices, we can breathe easier, work more productively, and live healthier lives in the spaces we call home, work, and play. We invite you to embark on this journey through the world of ventilation, and we hope you find the insights and knowledge within these pages both enlightening and empowering. Sincerely, Charles nehme

Download or read book The Eco-Home Design Guide written by Christopher Day and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key principles of designing a pleasant, comfortable and healthy eco-home, with a foreword written by HRH The Prince of Wales, now King Charles III. Designing an eco-home is much more about working with your house's location and situation than relying on intrusive technology and hi-tech materials. With the soaring energy bills and the climate crisis, it is now more important than ever to invest in a home that is considerate of keeping heat in. In this handbook, architect Christopher Day draws on his extensive experience to explain the key principles of eco-home design, using common-sense methods. Packed full of practical information, it includes several case studies of eco-homes, reviewing (with hindsight) what worked well and what could have been better. There is also guidance on how to generate energy, upgrading old buildings, and site planning. With beautifully hand-drawn illustrations, Christopher explores how to use local topography, combined with landscaping, to improve your home's microclimate and keep your house dry and warm in the winter, and cool in the summer. There are also handy tips on how to minimise hidden environmental impacts, and ideas on ways to make your home a safe and healthy place, both emotionally and physically. The Eco-Home Design Guide is essential for anyone who wants to create a attractive, environmentally friendly home that is in harmony with its location.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the most prestigious nonprofit organizations devoted to environmental issues comes a clear, practical, and rational overview of the relationship between consumers and the environment. Paper or plastic? Bus or car? Old house or new? Cloth diapers or disposables? Some choices have a huge impact on the environment; others are of negligible importance. To those of us who care about our quality of life and what is happening to the earth, this is a vastly important issue. In these pages, the Union of Concerned Scientists help inform consumers about everyday decisions that significantly affect the environment. For example, a few major decisions--such as the choice of a house or vehicle--have such a disproportionately large affect on the environment that minor environmental infractions shrink by comparison. This book identifies the 4 Most Significant Consumer-Related Environmental Problems, the 7 Most Damaging Spending Categories, 11 Priority Actions, and 7 Rules for Responsible Consumption. Learn what you can do to have a truly significant impact on our world from the people who are at the forefront of scientific research.
