Very poor air quality again in #Ringwood #Hampshire today. Very light winds and a temperature inversion with a strong smell of wood smoke everywhere.

Very poor air quality again in #Ringwood #Hampshire this evening. Strong smell of wood smoke everywhere. Time to ban wood burning in our towns and cities.

Wood burning in #Ringwood resulting in some very high air pollution levels last night.

@CharnwoodStoves @RBKingston You live on the IoW, what do you know of @RBKingston? Why is Surbiton the worse place in UK for air pollution? We had >250µg/m³ PM2.5 in our bedrooms from neighbours woodburner. In RBK! We have dozens of “modern” stoves within 100m. 2/4

@NewForestSussed @newforestranger @NewForestNPA @LymoTweetUp I'm fine, the bite drew blood and my leg is a little bruised and swollen. Another couple of walkers witnessed the event and advised that I should report it to the police.

Very high levels of PM #airpollution in #Ringwood #Hampshire this morning.

@MaloneJoe27511 @mwt2008 I can smell woodsmoke, so someone around my area is using one despite it being 14 degrees outside and sunny.

[Chris @ChrisCleanair]

@mwt2008 @RicardoAirQ Even the best case PM2.5 output of 10 g/GJ at a distance of 20m from the flue results in PM2.5 levels of 177 µg/m³.

[Chris @ChrisCleanair]

@mwt2008 @RicardoAirQ Reading the Ricardo Emission Factors for Domestic Solid Fuels Project report Table 5.5 - PM2.5 emissions from a modern stove (dry wood) was measured at 131 g/GJ. Assuming low winds, this results in PM2.5 levels of ~1200 µg/m³ at a distance of 10m from the flue.

[Chris @ChrisCleanair]

Measurements from 2 different sensors show that PM #airpollution levels in #Ringwood #Hampshire are currently so high that sensitive groups may experience serious health effects.

Two separate #airpollution monitors in #Ringwood #Hampshire , both showing the harmful effects of wood smoke on air quality last night.

@Jayscarlett71 @AJPendleton Not the only solution. The stove industry could stop producing products that produce toxic emissions that are measurable by neighbouring properties.

[Andrew Pendleton @AJPendleton]

One person's 'busybodying behaviour' is another person's very understandable concerns about neighbours burning wood in urban areas and polluting the cold, still winter skies with deadly fine particles.

[Patrick Lee @PatrickjaLee]

"In households with wood stoves, the risk of dementia was 70% higher compared to residents living in non-wood smoke areas."

@StoveReadyWood @PatrickjaLee @ImpUrbanHealth @rpidgeon77 @airqualitynews @mwt2008 @scullingbat @NbrsVsWoodSmoke @ewan_chamings @EmBeck2015 What you are actually saying is that those who are impacted by neighbours woodburning & are very concerned about their family's health should suffer in silence so that your industry can continue to make money from an archaic polluting source of heating.!

[Andrew Pendleton @AJPendleton]

@CharnwoodStoves @asthmalunguk Thank you. In the meantime, can you share answers to the questions on this thread as I think if you're recommending eco design stoves for clean air you should be able to show:
- Their contribution to PM2.5 emissions
- Causation and not just correlation on displacement

[Chris @ChrisCleanair]

Wood smoke fills the air,
Ringwood chokes on evening's breath—
Stars dim through the haze.

[Chris @ChrisCleanair]

@Jayscarlett71 @TownRingwood @newforestdc @DesmondSwayne @DefraGovUK @newforestfoe @CharnwoodStoves @newforestdc Any chance that you will look into this? #Ringwood residents are suffering very high levels of wood smoke related air pollution. This is the last 24 hours.
