South Asian countries are unleashing solutions to fight air pollution and accelerate action to meet national air quality targets. Working together, across sectors and borders, will yield better results, faster and at lower costs: https://t.co/Doz7NkQJyX #WorldCleanAirDay

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

🌎 This #WorldCleanAirDay is about investing in #CleanAirNow.

#IPCC's 2021 #ClimateReport shows that #ClimateChange & #AirQuality are intimately linked. Many of the human activities that produce long-lived greenhouse gases also emit air pollutants.

[Hassan Aftab @hassanaftabs]

Climate change and air pollution are two sides of the same coin, but they are typically addressed separately

Using integrated strategies that focus on reducing emissions from common sources can protect public health, improve air quality, and combat climate change.

[Peshawar Clean Air Alliance @PCAAKP]

In 2022, out of the 25 most populous districts of #Pakistan, #Peshawar had the highest annual average PM2.5 concentration.

[Peshawar Clean Air Alliance @PCAAKP]

@UChiAir's latest report shows that, in #Peshawar, the life expectancy gains from reducing PM2.5 from 2022
concentration to @WHO PM2.5 guideline (of 5μg/m³) would be 5.6 years.

[Air Quality Life Index (AQLI) @UChiAir]

If countries with #pollution standards meet their own benchmarks, 2.5B people would live an avg of 1.2 years longer, finds our #AQLIReport. 6/11

[Air Quality Life Index (AQLI) @UChiAir]

Nearly 40% of countries aren’t producing open #AirQuality data.

EPIC’s new Air Quality Fund, through a $1.5M gift from @open_phil, will support local groups and orgs in installing monitors & providing open data to communities that could benefit the most. https://t.co/fviaEeFmiO

When dealing with #airpollution, cities can take multiple steps.

Read from @CleanAirFund on 4 ways cities and health organizations are prioritizing #cleanair in their climate solutions. https://t.co/dh6pBgCyy5

Rising temperatures not only bring sweltering heat but also dangerous spikes in air pollution. Did you know that extreme heat waves can contribute to soaring ozone levels? #airquality #airpollution #summer #heatwave #ozone

Happy #WorldEnvironmentDay!

But the news isn’t so happy when it comes to our planet. Ecosystems are at risk around the world.

The good news is that everyone can part of #GenerationRestoration and make a difference today & every day: https://t.co/7G9J6TG5K9

[Energy Policy Institute at UChicago @UChiEnergy]

On May 21, join @UChiEnergy and Prof. Andrea La Nauze to explore the effect of long-term, publicly-accessible PM2.5 data from single ground monitors on local air quality in cities across the world with little to no preexisting monitoring.
