Hello zhenghong. It is true that there exists some indoor air pollution. You know, when we use those electrical products like air conditioners, exhausting fans, electrical fans, computers and so on, they produce pollution as well. If one smokes in the office or room, the room will be polluted by him. Meanwhile, those who do not smoke suffer from passive smoking from those who spit out smoke. All of this can be considered hazards of the toxic office. I wish everyone could be more aware of this and pay more attention to the protection of the environment where we live. Take care.

Even a building's design can promote pollution. if there is a basement parking garage, carbon monoxide seeps up stairways and elevator shafts. in many buildings the air-inlet vents are located opposite the exhaust vents and can't avoid pulling in conntaminated air.other sources of pollution are more surprising: plastic furniture and room dividers, and pressboard as well, emit formaldehyde and at least 100 volatile organic compounds.
