During the energy crunch of the 1970s, conservation measures such as installing sealed windows, closing air-intake ducts and overinsulating roofs only made matters worse. As a result, most -- and at times all -- of the air in many office buildings is recirculated. "Without adequate dilution by fresh air, pollution levels build up," explains Robert Phalen, an environmental specialist...
