Description:

Human activities are elevating atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations to levels unprecedented in human history. The majority of anticipated impacts of anthropogenic CO 2emissions are mediated by climate warming. Recent experimental studies in the ﬁelds of indoor air quality and cognitive psychology and neuroscience, however, have revealed signi ﬁcant direct effects of indoor CO 2levels on cognitive function. Here, we shed light on this connection and estimate the impact of continued fossil fuel emissions on human cognition. We conclude that indoor CO 2levels may indeed reach levels harmful to cognition by the end of this century, and the best way to prevent this hidden consequence of climate change
