Thank you The Telegraph and Jessica Salter for this strong piece highlighting the dangers of #WoodBurning. We hope many will read this and think twice. "Even those with #Ecodesign Ready models should rip them out". #AirPollution #CleanAir
"The government has failed the whole nation & betrayed my daughter’s memory". 100% agree with Rosamund Adoo-KD CBE FBSA. Utterly outrageous that Defra UK should aim for 2005 World Health Organization (WHO) limits to be achieved by 2040, when those 2005 limits were superseded last year. thetimes.co.uk/article/target…

Pleased to have been at the launch of the London Assembly #Environment Committee’s "Clean Air for all Londoners" report. What a day for it - this was the view as we travelled there. Stronger action on #AirPollution cannot come soon enough. london.gov.uk/press-releases…
If you want a fresh air future and clean air for our kids to breathe Don’t forget to join this event run by the amzing Mums For Lungs tomorrow night. Lets get the government to commit to ambitious air quality targets.
Every two minutes in the U.K. a baby is born in an area with dangerously polluted air. Why isn't Government committing to stronger targets in the #EnvironmentAct? We need #CleanAirNow. We can't wait another 18 years for outdated World Health Organization (WHO) targets. independent.co.uk/news/health/uk…
This @cleanairfund Imperial College London report shows that with planned & anticipated policies we can get to the World Health Organization (WHO) #AirPollution target of 10ug/m3 by 2030. This will save thousands of lives. #CleanAirNow Jo Churchill Boris Johnson Rishi Sunak. cleanairfund.org/publication/uk…
“You need to try & imagine that this time next year, in London between eight & 12 children would have died from asthma." Proposed Government #AirPollution targets will fail this generation of children. We need #CleanAirNow. Jo Churchill Sajid Javid standard.co.uk/news/uk/london…
Alarming news - 30% increase in children admitted to the Whittington Hospital for respiratory illnesses in the last year. Air pollution triggers asthma and is proven to worsen respiratory illnesses. Time to take urgent action. #CleanAir #Islington Praful Nargund Liverpool Road Clean Air 💙
