Refute this …
I can never understand when people leave an air-conditioned room saying, “I am going to get some fresh air.” In my case, while strolling in the city park, I often feel the need to go home to get some fresh air. My home is totally climate-controlled — heated in winter and air-conditioned in the summer, and I use the best air-filter that is available in the market. So my indoor air is absolutely free from dust, pollens, smoke, industrial fumes, gases emitted by car exhausts etc. which can be collectively called “allergen-free and carcinogen-free”. And that is what I call fresh air. Outside air is never fresh. It always has all kinds of pollutants in it.
Refute this, if you dare.

Makes sense, but can’t beat the feel of sunshine on a pretty day, with a breeze blowing in your face. But, I don’t live in a smog infested city.
Shoban this may be compared to the water of the river and the water of the tap .
Your reasoning is perfect . It remains the pleasure in some cases to go outside in a forest for instance , the pleasure to be in ” nature ”

@dianelub - Diane: Don’t take my posting too seriously, but in that case people can say, “I want to enjoy the sunshine outside”, or “I want to feel the breeze on my face”. Why use the word “fresh air”? And wherever you live, pollen and dust is everywhere. And if you live in America, which I know you do, gases from car exhausts is everywhere. If you have factories/industries within a 10-mile radius, industrial fumes are present in your air. The town of Mathura is about 30 miles away from Agra where Taj Mahal is situated. Do you know industrial fumes of Mathura has turned the white marble of Taj Mahal yellowish, and it is still doing the damage? Scientists from all over the world has determined there is no way of preventing this, but to shut down the factories. And this, of course, is not possible because of political reasons. LOL.

@fauquet - Then say, “I want to enjoy nature” (don’t say nature is calling me)! Why say, “Fresh air”? Talking about water, I never drink spring water (and waste my money). Spring water (including your Evian water) comes from nature. That means, all the animal wastes, birds’ droppings, soil, dust, rotten leaves and stems/twigs of trees, and so forth have contaminated the water. Only stupids drink them and pay for them. I drink the filtered and treated water supplied by my city’s waterworks. For additional safety I use Brita water filter and filter it again at home. When I hear about outbreak of waterborne diseases in nearby areas, I also BOIL my water before drinking. You know, I am smart, real smart! LOL.
