"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. #Health @ITV

The new rules which have been introduced in a bid to tackle air pollution, also apply to parents outside schools and taxi drivers who leave engines idling. | ITV News Meridian

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. https://t.co/cfB0nQHRIx

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

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
Day 2 at the Vatican Summit @PontAcadLife about climate resilience. Today Mayors and Governors Summit, starting with powerful and inspiring address by the Holy Father @Pontifex urging for a synergy of cooperation and global solidarity to sort this planetary crisis.

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.

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. @bhcitynews
