PHL April 20, 2013
Carbon emissions which is the concern of Kyoto protocol and which is given much attention (because of its effect on global warming/climate change) can sometimes be lumped with air pollution.
This article "Is Climate Change same as Air Pollution?" says this should be treated differently.
The topics belong to different subsets
Low carbon level in the atmosphere does not mean, that air quality is better because there are PM that are toxic and harmful to health but which are not visible.
Closer, more accurate, more relevant measurements must be made.
This site would like followers and leaders to be aware of air pollution and how it impacts our lives and health. We seem to be uncaring about this growing serious problem which we know is there but we do nothing. Shall we wait for air pollution to be as serious as in Beijing? When do we act?
