It is the ‘invisible’ problem in sports: poor indoor air quality (IAQ) that can negatively affect the performance of athletes.  And it is a problem of particular concern in Rio de Janeiro, the host city of the 2016 Summer Olympic games, which has experienced significant air quality issues in recent years.   To help minimize the impact of pollution on Sweden’s delegation to the games, Ca...
