Clean Air for Brighton & Hove

community group discussing air quality. We aim to work constructively to reduce pollution levels and exposures across the city.

[Clean Air for Brighton & Hove @cleanairbh]

"Any measures that will improve #AirQuality we obviously welcome but this will make a really small difference...we really urge the council to take action that will make more of a difference."

It is unacceptable to idle engines in 2024.

We are calling on Brighton Council to:
1.⁠ ⁠Tackle toxic air pollution
2.⁠ ⁠Support national clean air policies
3.⁠ ⁠Launch a Clean Air Pilot Scheme on Lewes Road in Brighton

14 months since @BHLabour’s pledge to tackle air pollution, yet we still have some of the UK's worst levels. With promises unfulfilled it's time for action. A blog post.

Amazing! Last month's Kidical Mass here was the second largest in the UK, beaten only by Manchester (population 570k). Well done to everyone who took part, the organisers and the wonderful marshals. @Bricycles @BrightonBikeHub @OSRBikeTrain @cleanairbh & BMWCC

Sixty years since Silent Spring and glyphosate - which we know is poison, and causes infertility, and which "probably" causes cancer, and devastates wildlife - is still used throughout the the UK.

It is possible to improve air quality; cities can fight air pollution and protect health. @WHO
It is not easy and requires courage. Listen to the powerful intervention of @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan.@PontAcadLife #Breathelife2030 @ourcommonair @c40cities @COP29_AZ

An article: https://t.co/Zxc3Gz2LD5
#Brighton has some of the highest PM2.5 #AirPollution & lacks a full Smoke Control Area.
A complete phase out of wood & coal burning is probably the best solution but not feasible in the short term so we ask again for a full Smoke Control area.

[Clean Air for Brighton & Hove @cleanairbh]

Wood & coal #burning can worsen health

#Brighton & #Hove has the worst pm2.5 #AirPollution in the UK

Let's declare a full Smoke Control Area NOW to prevent pollution induced #asthma & #heartdisease

Newcastle can, why not us @Rowkz?

[Atreeon AirQ 🌳🚶‍♂️🌿🚲🌱🛴🌲🚋⚡️🚉🐞🚈🌻🚡🐝🏃🌳 @atreeon]

#AirQuality is also a human right & a housing standard

@BHLabour & @BellaSankey’s city plan is building homes on the most polluted roads where #AirPollution is 4x @WHO guidelines

Declare a Clean Air Zone immediately to mitigate pollution induced #Asthma #HeartDisease

[Clean Air for Brighton & Hove @cleanairbh]

It is also important and relevant to note that #Brighton & #Hove is the largest city in the country without a full smoke control area.

@rowkz, @BellaSankey and @bhlabour - we urge you to declare a full zone without any further delay.

Interesting and positive! Business groups asking politicians to reduce emissions! Belgian 🇧🇪 insurer urges politicians to strengthen low emission zones. ⁦@c40cities⁩ ⁦@ourcommonair⁩ #breathelife2030 https://t.co/0PJ7tGkzmz

[Gary Fuller @DrGaryFuller]

Belgium's mutual health insurer @MutLibres has been investigating the country's three low emission zones #LEZ (#Brussles, #Antwerp, #Ghent) to see if they are improving #airpollution for its members.
