Do you have any recommendations on how to learn more about this? My brother has a steep hill on his property and Ive been wondering about the feasibility of PSH. How high the tank should be, the equipment, the power output.

So do many Americans. It is a vocal and proselytizing minority getting outsized coverage that makes it seem like “everyone feels this way”.

Whatever else this does, keep in mind it is an immunosuppressor, which we should expect it to have many of the same side effects of similar drugs.

You forgot one: c) Minimalist-loving hipsters that read articles like this and bandwagon on Go just like any other trend (merits of the language aside). These are the same folks that use a hand crank to grind their coffee beans.

I’m surprised no one on here has mentioned CO2 levels yet. A simple CO2 monitor will tell you if your ambient co2levels are too high. Modern, newer homes are like sealed boxes and high levels can exacerbate breathing issues and by extension

Great to see this here. I started monitoring the CO2 levels in my new apartment after waking up with headaches every night since moving in. Plugged it in and the alarm started going off immediately at 3000ppm. I use this package to graph ou
