That's what Singaporean dad 'Mr Ng' is doing but it means having to live like that all the time, out of concern for his 22-month-old daughter's health. His and his neighbour’s balconies are just a metre apart, and the smoke disperses quickly throughout his home. In a #TalkingPoint experiment, air quality sensors were placed in Mr Ng’s home for two weeks. 00:00 Impact on their life 00:31 Air quality sensors measure PM2.5 00:59 The results 01:48 Health impact of secondhand smoke 02:22 How much exposure does it take?
