#51 | Breathing Room: The Case for Clean Air with Plum Stone

In this eye-opening episode, host Jess Kismet speaks with Plum Stone, founder of the Safer Air Project, who brings a health policy and lived-experience lens to indoor air quality. Plum redefines clean air as a fundamental accessibility and equity issue, exposing the severe health impacts that poor indoor environments have on vulnerable populations in schools and workplaces. From classroom CO2 spikes to national performance standards, this discussion highlights why we must stop treating clean air as an afterthought and start engineering safer shared spaces for everyone.
