Who is protecting our children from the harmful effects of air pollution? Our governments clearly are not doing the job. Everywhere the WHO safety limit on fine particle pollution is exceed, often drastically.

Carbon Pulse Retweeted
New Zealand has released its economy-wide Emissions Reduction Plan, however it concedes that technology to cut emissions from its most polluting sector - agriculture - is still years away.

15/16 What can you do to improve outdoor air quality? A collective effort is needed from governments and companies that influence individual actions. Ban of wood and biomass stove burning is needed especially in urban settings. Limit traffic across all roads in a city too.

13/16 How PM2.5 impact human health? The smaller the particles the deeper they go inside our bodies. PM2.5 is around 2,500 nanometres in diameter. However, nanoparticles are 100nm or less. In comparison, they are 25 smaller, as a result, they can reach any organ in our bodies.pic.twitter.com/cFdcUFqzfx

12/16 Why mass concentration is not adequate to measure PM1 and UFP? Governmental authorities monitor PM2.5 by mass micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m3), consequently, million of nanoparticles may not even register in a single measurement by microgram.

11/16 Should we measure PM10, PM1, and UFP apart from PM2.5? Experts claim that PM1 is a better indicator for a roadside micro-environment than PM2.5. Recent research suggests that UPFs could be responsible for illness and death beyond our current understanding.

9/16 Where can you find information about local ambient air quality with PM2.5 data? Almost all countries measure PM2.5 US - http://airnow.gov Spain - http://ica.miteco.es UK - http://naei.beis.gov.uk Third-party apps

8/16 Why we need to measure PM2.5 indoors and outdoors? There is a great relationship between both environments as we exchange air. We need to ventilate indoor air to dilute some chemicals and CO2. Buildings tend to have 50% of the pollutants present in the ambient air

7/16 How building occupants measure PM2.5? Building occupants use IoT air quality monitors which employ low-cost sensors similar to what experts use but sometimes of less accuracy.
