This week we have Part 2, of our series titled "Is the Approach to IAQ, Green Buildings and Mold Science Based? Regular IAQ Radio contributor Don Weekes, CIH, CSP of InAir Environmental will join us to discuss if it is practical to take a purely science based approach to IAQ, Green Buildings or Mold issues.

This week on IAQ Radio we will discuss fragrances and perfumes with an expert on the subject Natalie Hinden-Kuhles of Agilex Fragrance. What are the manufacturer's doing to develop products that have less effect on indoor environments and sensitive individuals? How do fragrances and perfumes affect IAQ? Are they a cure, a band-aid, or a detriment? Get the answers this week on IAQ Radio with hosts Joe Hughes and Cliff Zlotnik.

Melinda Ballard serves as President, Policyholders of America (POA), a non-profit organization providing free claims assistance to homeowners who've filed claims covered by their homeowner's policies. More than 2 million people have joined POA since its formation in 2000. Ms. Ballard founded the group after experiencing, firsthand, how insurance carriers often deal with their policyholders after disaster strikes. Dr. Shoemaker is the Corresponding author for the POA's "Research Committee Report on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Caused by Exposure to the Interior Environment of Water-Damaged Buildings". This report is presents the Mold Research Committees position statement on the current state of the science regarding human health effects acquired following exposure to the multiple microbes and microbial contaminants and their metabolites found in the interior environment of water-damaged buildings. This dynamic duo has joined forces to advance the understanding of health effects caused by exposure to water damaged buildings. Join us this week to learn more about the POA, The Mold Research Committee and of course Malinda Ballard and Dr. Ritchie Shoemaker on IAQ Radio.
