Media advisory #BanWoodBurning #Ammonia ? | Defra UK is due to publish annual #AirPollution statistics at 930am Tuesday 30 April gov.uk/government/sta… ps Here’s what they said last year gov.uk/government/sta…

Three days to go! A recap of our #Manchester #LocalElections2024 asks:
1. A pathway to World Health Organization (WHO) #AirPollution guidelines
2. A #CleanAir cabinet member
3. Action on #WoodBurning
4. #SchoolStreets at 25% of schools by 2029

This Unearthed investigation is well worth a read. The shady world of Facebook groups, London's #CleanAir zone & Conservative Party representatives.

“Their presence in these groups could be seen as an endorsement of the hateful & violent rhetoric within them”.

On woodburning, Rob wants more evidence and data and believes public awareness is very low. He is committed to raise awareness but wont commit to a target to end unnecessary woodburning 🫤. Our partner @mumsforlungs outlines the case for action here mumsforlungs.org/our-campaigns/…. 5/5

Response is in from Sadiq Khan - we're reassured that his commitment to reaching WHO air quality levels remains if re-elected. Also happy to hear he will investigate creating a website for #London 's #AirPollution data, & to read his manifesto pledge to expand #SchoolStreets 👍.

'I live my life on the road & you can tell when you go to certain places that the air is worse than other places'.

Taxi driver John knows the dirty secret of #Manchester 's toxic air. Email the Mayoral candidates today, asking for action. cleancitiescampaign.org/gm #GMDirtySecret

Hundreds of these postcards have been sent to the four leading candidates for the #LondonMayor . Thank you to all the groups who are collaborating with us! #Mayor4CleanAir #AirPollution

These posters have been popping up all over #GreaterManchester , to show local & Mayoral election candidates how much voters want #CleanAir . In 2022, #Manchester had the highest NO2 concentrations of any local authority in the UK, and this needs to change. mumsforlungs.org/manchester

👀 great to see that #Oxford 's zero emissions zone is doing its job. 😍. #AirPollution #ZeroEmissionsZone

Hundred of these postcards have been sent to #GreaterManchester & #Manchester #Elections2024 candidates. So great to see so many people across GM caring about #CleanAir & joining in to ask our policymakers for strong action 😍.

'The grim reality is that #AirPollution , particularly from sources like #Diesel vehicles, is causing staggering numbers of premature deaths globally'.

This is why we need our policymakers to commit to a diesel phase-out. #LE2024 #LondonElections

In March 2023, ministers cut two-thirds of England’s dedicated funding for walking, wheeling and cycling.

Our legal challenge against this will be heard on Tuesday.

#LondonMayor | Zoë Garbett smashes our final #CleanAirScorecard with *eleven* out of 10! Sadiq Khan is second with an excellent 9/10 for cleaner air. Rob Blackie 🔶 scores 6/10. Susan Hall AM gets #MinusThree with her manifesto raising serious questions and concerns about…

'But even the WHO-recommended level isn’t itself safe'.

This is why we want Mayoral & local election candidates to commit to a pathway of actions to achieve the latest WHO #AirPollution targets.

It's still not enough though 😢. #LE2024 #Mayor4CleanAir

Thanks for sending these to me Mums For Lungs. #cleanair isn't just a climate or social justice issue but also a health issue that taxes the NHS & social care system. As a pregnant woman & mother I'm deeply concerned about the short & long term effects of #AirPollution on everyone

“It’s hard to respond to people who claim #AirPollution ‘isn’t that bad’ if there isn’t a single comprehensive website that has the data to dispute that.”

👇 Why we're calling on #London 's next Mayor to help simplify pollution data. #Mayor4CleanAir swlondoner.co.uk/news/20032024-…

Children are particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of air pollution because their bodies, organs and immune systems are still developing.

We need those elected next Thursday to commit to #SchoolStreets & #SchoolSuperZones ! #LE2024 #LondonMayor
