Indoor air quality: a consumer protection issue.
In the last decade, the quality of indoor air has become a consumer protection issue. A Consumer Federation of America (CFA) study found that consumer knowledge about indoor air issues is limited. Although there is authority under existing statutes to address some aspects of the indoor air problem, consumer advocates and health professionals are supporting additional regulations and legislation. Such measures are aimed at reducing pollutants, affecting the operation of buildings, providing more information to consumers, and directing the federal government to conduct additional research and embark on programs to address indoor air pollution.
