Project Summary/Abstract
Humans in developed countries spend 80% of their time indoors. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a product of
respiration, expired at a concentration of 40,000 ppm, leading to higher levels indoors than outdoors. CO2 is
widely regarded as nontoxic. However, three human experimental studies using highly sensitive tests of
cognitive function including an airline flight simulator, reported concentration-related decrements in higher
cognitive function during 2 hr. exposures to elevated, but real-world CO2 concentrations (
