DailyBreath, LLC is pleased it has been recognized as a Weather-Ready Nation Ambassador by NOAA. DailyBreath is now formally recognized as a NOAA partner improving the nation’s readiness against extreme weather, water, and climate events. “We are committed to working with NOAA and other WRN Ambassadors to strengthen resilience against extreme weather and the resultant impacts on communities, vulnerable populations, and the general public in the US and around the world,” said Eric Klos, CEO of DailyBreath.
DailyBreath is partnered with fellow WRN Ambassador, Monarch Weather Consulting, to bring innovative solutions to market that support resiliency for communities and help individuals avoid the negative health outcomes that can result from extreme weather events. They collaborated in the creation of SHOW, a Smoke Heatmap Overlay for Wildfires, for the DailyBreath mobile app, and available as an API, delivering dynamic wildfire smoke information to support individuals, organizations, businesses, and communities in their efforts in resiliency and adaptation. DailyBreath is building a technological infrastructure to support the provision of weather and environmental insights for better health outcomes daily, and when extreme weather, weather, and climate events arise.
For example, wildfires threaten life and property locally in the immediate near-term, but its resultant wildfire smoke, threatens people ‘downwind’ hundreds of miles for a longer period with negative health consequences. Being ready and responsive to extreme weather events is critical, but also being prepared for the resultant hazards, like wildfire smoke, is imperative within communities and for individuals who bear the brunt of increased negative health outcomes following extreme weather events.
Eric further stated, “The challenge of our time when it comes to weather and environmental risk in a changing climate is to move beyond just the sharing of data and information, to a sufficient translation of population-level and personalized insights to drive resiliency at the community level and adaptation at a personal level to ensure less negative health outcomes.” “At the end of the day, it’s about ensuring that even one life breathes easier,” Eric concluded.
DailyBreath is a cloud based SAAS company delivering personalized environmental insights for better breathing outcomes. DailyBreath is a mobile app that helps those with respiratory conditions to pinpoint THEIR triggers. DailyBreath is unique in that we are trying to diagnose the environment around YOU that impacts YOUR breathing. Our mission is to help everyone breathe easier by pinpointing triggers one symptom at a time. Our vision is a world where uncertainty, fear, and suffering associated with daily breathing is lessened for those with allergy, asthma, and COPD.
