À propos de ce contenu audio
Podcast with Gina Ciganik, Chief Executive Officer, Habitable (Formerly Healthy Building Network).
She discusses her background as a real estate developer and how she became interested in understanding the health impacts of building materials. She explains that there is a lack of transparency and regulation around disclosing the chemical contents of building products compared to industries like food and personal care.
The video explores the perceived higher costs of using healthier materials, but Gina argues that a holistic view considering factors like longevity, health costs, and environmental impacts shows that healthier materials can be cost-neutral or even cost-saving. She emphasises the need for greater awareness and a mindset shift towards simplifying material palettes and prioritising health.
The video covers research on the significant health and environmental costs associated with certain chemicals like PFAS and microplastics from paint.
