High levels of carbon dioxide might be bad for your brain and stuff (https://slatestarcodex.com/2018/08/23/carbon-dioxide-an-open-door-policy/).
Has anyone found a way to scrub indoor CO2 besides buying a ridiculous number of plants?
I've done brief searches for products and come back empty handed except for this algae bioreactor-filter thing, which claims to be "25 plants worth" and not require sunlight (https://algenair.com/). I'm not yet convinced this is viable for e.g. a one-room office
Any tips appreciated!
Indoor CO2 concentrations and cognitive function: A critical review (2020)
"In a subset of studies that meet objective criteria for strength and consistency, pure CO2 at a concentration common in indoor environments was only found to affect high-level decision-making measured by the Strategic Management Simulation battery in non-specialized populations, while lower ventilation and accumulation of indoor pollutants, including CO2, could reduce the speed of various functions but leave accuracy unaffected."
I haven't been especially impressed by claims that normal indoor CO2 levels are impairing cognitive function to any extent worth worrying about. Crack a window, I guess?
