Time flies... 7 years ago today I was in Belgium working on a student citizen science project to measure air pollution indoors and outdoors at 13 schools. Here's a picture from the demo session, where I showed the students how the @NAQTS V2000 air quality monitor works!

It's less than one week until #CleanAirNight, which is all about wood burning🪵🔥 A few years ago I helped @hwallop to measure the ultrafine particles indoor air pollution generated by woodburning stoves @cleanairdayuk @globalactplan https://t.co/OrdPkDVuUW

If the graph were a hospital ECG measuring my heart rate, I wouldn’t just be in cardiac arrest, I would be wheeled off to the morgue. The line chugs along at 7,000, then starts to climb at 6.02pm...
