AIR IT YOURSELF
Make your own indoor air purifier with household materials
How does it work?
With Air It Yourself, users can make their own air purifier using household materials, plus a fan and filters, and have clean air at an affordable price.
Why is it needed?
We tend to think that staying indoors will protect us from environmental air pollution. However, indoor air ventilation brings pollutants from outdoors into our buildings and into our lungs. Especially in cities with poor air quality, having clean air at home will cost you a lot.
How does it improve life?
Although air purifiers are essential to a person's health, not everyone can easily access them. Air is a public resource and everyone should have the same right to clean air.
