I live in Denver, and, for the past few weeks, we've had high pollution,
mainly Ozone. Is there something that can be used in the house to remove
Ozone, or, change it to something safer for your lungs?

TIA!

Simply keep the doors and windows closed.

There might be an electrical device that would produce negative ions which
may have an effect of reducing concentrations of ozone. Ozone is made up of
three atoms of oxygen. Normal oxygen contains two atoms of oxygen. I think
that ozone can break down into normal two atom oxygen in the presence of
negative ions. Is there anyone better qualified than me to offer a better
solution to the problem of ozone pollution?

This is something I'd like to know more about too: A call for expertize

I agree with you, as you may have noticed that is School boy Chemistry that
I have partly remembered.

Ozone is a highly reactive chemical. Typically unless there is a
source renewing it - the stuff will degrade quickly in an indoors
environment. (15 min to an hour)
