⚠️ Nearly everyone who lives in a city is breathing toxic air that is damaging their health. By cleaning the air, we can save lives, tackle the climate crisis and help make our cities healthier and fairer.

Today marks a year since London's ULEZ expansion, which has so far reduced pollution by 53% in central London and more than 20% in the rest of London. We’ve loved collaborating with Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan and supporting initiatives like the Breathe Cities programme. 🌍#ItsInTheAir

Change is happening. In our communities, among our leaders, in our cities. Streets once built only for cars are now opening up for people – to walk, run, ride... on buses and cycle paths. On #WorldCleanAirDay, we celebrate clean air zones that are transforming transport
