Show Notes
In this episode, Herman and Corn dive deep into the invisible world of particulate matter, moving beyond standard PM10 and PM2.5 to explore the systemic risks of PM1. They break down the physics of air filtration, explaining why 0.3 microns is the ultimate stress test for HEPA filters and how Brownian motion helps catch the tiniest pollutants. From kitchen fumes to diesel exhaust, learn how to interpret your home sensor data and why the air you can't see matters most for your long-term health.
