Our team in Indore has been analyzing data from #airquality sensors installed in 2023. Check out what they have identified as the first insights from the data:
🆕Rush hours aren’t just for traffic jams - they're also peak times for #airpollution. 🚗💨 New data from #Indore shows PM2.5 spikes up to 140 µg/m³ at 8 AM & 8 PM, 3x higher than off-peak levels. How can cities use this data for #cleanairaction? Read on➡️ bit.ly/4bNEXJ2

Today is International Day of Clean Air for blue skies #CleanAirDay #TogetherForCleanAir , so it is fitting that we are here at South Africa's conference on Air Quality #NACA2023 that has the theme of #CollaboratingForCleanAir
#AirPollution #ClimateChange #CleanAir
Clean air is a human right. Air pollution is a global public health emergency - and a preventable problem.
It's time we work #TogetherForCleanAir.
