Current UK picture. Anyone have link to report @Channel4News? ⁩You can see data via satellite; frame in seconds. Nowhere in UK currently meets new ⁦@WHO⁩ guidelines (2021) nor any other country. There’re interim targets for countries to work towards ⁦@DrMariaNeira⁩

All the land you see here being built on is a Nature Reserve in Wales 😱 What exactly is the point of designating any land in Wales as a Nature Reserve - if there are no laws to protect it. @SeneddClimate @LlyrGruffydd @DelythJewellAM @JennyRathbone @huw4ogmore

Is @cardiffcouncil taking issue of #CleanAir as seriously as it could & should? By allowing mass dev in #Cardiff north, they are decimating benefits of green spaces, ⬆️traffic which⬆️danger levels #AirPollution impacting our #Health. @CardiffSave @HETRA14 @savehaileypark
All in health know how deadly the impact of air pollution on health is. PM2.5 is the most deadly it enters the blood stream. Been found in placentas of pregnant women, in brain cancer & dementia patients. It was in Ella’s lungs seen in her post mortem. She had lungs of a smoker

Wales is one of most nature depleted countries on our planet (224/240 @RSPBCymru report) Yet here’s construction noise drowning out squawking herons returning to breed in capital city’s only heronry 🤷‍♀️ Please help @SeneddClimate @LlyrGruffydd @DelythJewellAM @JennyRathbone

Doing my best but I need everyone’s support to persuade their MP to support #EllasLaw. I absolutely can’t do this on my own, I need the Gov to adopt the bill. Clean Air mustn’t be about race, class, wealth or any advantage. We are in a PHe emergency & you can make a difference.

Welsh Gov just issued Cardiff Council with a ‘planning directive’ stopping CC granting planning permission for Velindre’s latest planning application for now👏👏👏 Whoever you are, whatever you’re fighting for - stay together and never ever give up ✊️ youtu.be/D45v5ZoZyuo

Building new @VelindreCC in already ‘pollution hotspot’ is totally incongruous! Stealing the only #CleanAir green zone in the area. Residents @HETRA14 exposed to even higher levels of #AirPollution with multiple neg effect on their #Health. @colvelindre theguardian.com/environment/…

Many concerns about the latest planning application (22/02231/RES) for the construction of the new Velindre Cancer Centre. Please consider emailing Cardiff Council Planning by midnight tonight (Sunday 27th) if you are concerned - lots of info in this link docs.google.com/document/d/1…

This is quite shocking. Emissions projections out yesterday show the UK will: 🔴Overshoot our 2030 Paris agreement emissions commitment by 40% 🔴Blow our 6th carbon budget by a huge 100% The UK needs an overarching strategy to keep to 1.5°C: Climate & Ecology Bill #CEBill.

Powerful call to action of Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah @EllaRobertaFdn, telling her and her daughter‘s story and demanding action against air pollution and fossil fuels. Ella is the first person to have ‚air pollution‘ as cause of death on her death certificate. #WHS2022

‘Every single disease that is non-communicable is impacted by air pollution. It is not only involved in worsening diseases but in causing them, & new diseases, that wouldn’t otherwise occur are happening because of #AirPollution.’ said Sir Stephen Holgate. airqualitynews.com/our-confe…
