Creating a Building Advisory Committee to Fix the Industry

Creating a Building Advisory Committee to Fix the Industry

Author: Andrew Pace October 19, 2024 Duration: 58:05

A few months ago, I started an ad hoc committee for the Change the Air Foundation, to put together the framework on how to design and build homes that are safe for those who suffer from mold and chemical sensitivities.  This committee is made up of myself, Brian Tinker from Tinker Homes and Amanda Klecker from Healthy House on the Block.  The three of us bring decades of experience, both personal and professional, in the world of building related health issues, and offer our unique perspectives.  Today, we peel back the curtain and invite you all to listen to one of our regular meetings so you can hear for yourself the discussions we have about doing our part to fix our broken building industry.  

 

 


Drawing from three decades of hands-on work with more than 30,000 clients globally, Andrew Pace shares his deep expertise on creating safer living spaces each week on Non Toxic Environments Home Health & Wellness. This isn't just theory; it's practical knowledge forged from a career dedicated to healthy building and consulting. Andrew’s conversations get into the real-world details often overlooked, from navigating chemical sensitivities and selecting non-toxic materials to effective mold remediation and sustainable home design. The podcast serves as a direct line to understanding how the places we live and relax in directly shape our physical well-being and fitness. You’ll find clear explanations on turning any house or garden into a true sanctuary that supports health, covering everything from air and water quality to the hidden toxins in everyday household items. Tune in for grounded advice that makes the principles of green building and holistic wellness accessible, whether you're planning a renovation or simply seeking a healthier, more conscious home environment. Andrew’s seasoned perspective makes each episode a valuable step toward reclaiming your personal space.
