On Wednesday, 7 June 2023, I met local campaigners from Manchester representing the Let’s Talk Clean Air in Whalley Range. They are campaigning for environmental justice and clean air. They have made a film to highlight this. Dr Sinead Millwood cycled to work and was shocked at the high levels of pollution. You can view the film here: bit.ly/cleantheairfilm
They have also suggested that there are 6 things you can do:
- Talk to friends, family and politicians
- Go local
- Walk or wheel to school
- Share a car
- Avoid burning at home
- Save and plant trees and green space
They also want a commitment from the Government to set and meet legally binding targets for Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Particulate Matter (PM2.5) levels that align with the World Health Organisation 2021 guidelines.
