| Abstract | The harmful effects of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are often overlooked or misperceived?. CO and CO2 can have harmful effects including confusion, dizziness, and in extreme cases, death?. That being the case, we were interested in measuring the levels of CO and CO2 in and around our school community, to see if the levels are high enough to be medically concerning. |
