Just launched: Public Lab's Where We Breathe Kickstarter campaign

[Liz Barry]

Dear Public Labbers, 

Exciting news -- the Where We Breathe Kickstarter campaign for indoor formaldehyde monitoring and mitigation is live!

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/publiclab/where-we-breathe-detecting-formaldehyde-in-the-hom

Where We Breathe project includes: 

The DIY Kit: 

The Lending Kit: 

The Remediation Test: 

 

and a new online platform with privacy protections for exchanging indoor air quality data and health symptoms:

Many people have been involved in developing this project to this point, especially Public Lab Fellow Nick Shapiro: http://publiclab.org/profile/nshapiro

And there has been some incredible media already -- here's Grist's short piece on this campaign and longer backstory of people still living in FEMA trailers 10 years after Katrina, and here's New Republic's longer interview with Nick on that "new car smell". 

Now we're asking for your support: check out the campaign page and the documentation on PublicLab.org. 

Ask questions, add comments, get excited to #TestYourAir, and share this excitement with your networks! 

Thank you for your support!

Yours, 

Liz
