Systemic inequalities in indoor air pollution exposure in London, UK
Buildings & Cities, 2021 Deprived communities in many cities are exposed to higher levels of outdoor air pollution, and there is increasing evidence of similar disparities for indoor air pollution exposure. There is a need to understand the drivers for this exposure disparity in

Polluted air—outdoors and indoors [PDF]
Occupational Medicine, 2005 Many air pollutants which are considered important in ambient (outdoor) air are also found, sometimes at higher levels, in indoor air. With demanding standards having been set for many of these pollutants, both in the workplace and ambient air, consideration of the problems posed by indoor pollution is gaining pace.

Indoor Air Pollution and Health: Bridging Perspectives from Developing and Developed Countries
Annual Review Environment and Resources, 2022 Much of the global population spends most of their time indoors; however, air pollution measurement, a proxy of exposure, occurs primarily outdoors. This fundamental disconnect between where the people are and where the measurements are made likely leads
