Description

In this episode, co-host Portia Mount from Trane Commercial shares what she learned as she interviewed leaders in research and advocacy who are actively working to address the infrastructure of school buildings, including the quality of their indoor learning environments. In 2019, 41% of school districts in the U.S. needed to upgrade or renew their heating and cooling systems in at least half their schools. And since then, the pandemic has increased our need to address inadequacies. The call to action is clear.

Did you know that 99% of the global population is breathing unhealthy air? What if it didn’t have to be that way? To us, the relationship between human health and planetary health is so intertwined that it's impossible to talk about one without the other. That's the focus of the Healthy Spaces podcast, where we’re exploring how technology and innovation are transforming the spaces where we live, work and play. Through conversations with scientists, engineers, and business leaders, we are connecting the dots for listeners between climate tech and healthier spaces for people and the planet. At Trane Technologies, our purpose is to challenge what’s possible for a sustainable world. We hope you’ll join us.
