Carbon dioxide is a natural greenhouse gas, commonly produced by the air we exhale. At higher levels, CO2 affects productivity, sleep and infectious disease transmission. Learn more on CO2 health effects, safe CO2 levels, and ways to reduce CO2.
Although the research community debates the impact of carbon dioxide on human health, it has been largely accepted that carbon dioxide levels are a useful proxy of the quality of air and the likelihood of the existence of other pollutants in the air[28]. As stressed out by ASHRAE in their ...

Due to its beneficial effects on cardiovascular health, Mediterranean diet is commonly recommended. The Mediterranean Diet is characterized by a high consumption of fruits and vegetables, unrefined cereals, plant-origin proteins, and healthy fats such as olive oil, nuts, and fatty fish. A low ...
Taxes on carbon dioxide result in higher prices and higher costs in energy-intensive sectors. The price rise will be transmitted to other sectors through input–output relationships between production sectors. Thus, it results in cost-driven inflation. With the increase in carbon tax rate from 10...
Apart from being an essential buffer in the human system, carbon dioxide is also known to cause health effects when the concentrations exceed a certain limit. The primary health dangers of carbon dioxide are: - Asphyxiation. Caused by the release of carbon dioxide in a confined or unventilated...
