EPA to Hold Webinar on the Cognitive Impact of Green Buildings

On Wednesday, May 11th from 1:00 – 2:30 PM EDT the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Indoor Environments Division will hold a webinar entitled “Knowledge in the Air.” During the event, leading researchers will present their finding on how green buildings affect cognitive function. Presenters include Joseph G. Allen and Piers MacNaughton, of Harvard’s T.H. Chan School of Public Health, as well as Usha Satish, from the State University of New York’s (SUNY) Upstate Medical University.

Webinar participants will learn to recognize the optimal IAQ conditions for health and productivity, explain the impacts of green buildings on decision-making performance, and identify health and economic benefits of enhanced productivity associated with increased ventilation rates.

As the architectural profession works to develop a deeper understanding of the impacts of the built environment on human health, this is an excellent opportunity to learn more about cutting edge research in the field.
