Breathing bricks? 💨🧱 🌿🏙️ What if buildings could help us breathe cleaner air? Breathe Bricks turns facades into air-cleaning systems, creating healthier homes in polluted cities. At #ATMOPOLIS, we believe smarter cities can help us to live better. 💙 Read more 👉🏽 l1nq.com/hmidrhs
Noise perception is shaped not only by decibels 🔊 but also by urban design 🏙️—from buildings and visibility️ to greenery 🌳—, highlighting how city morphology can foster healthier, more human-centered environments. Know more 👉🏽 n9.cl/buq7t
#CleanAirDay is near! 💙🏙 Our partner @globalactionplan.bsky.social organizes it. At #ATMOPOLIS, we encourage everyone to take part. Cleaner air for stronger communities! Save the date! Thursday 18 June 📅
Infrasound noise from AI data centers is being linked to insomnia, anxiety, and discomfort in nearby communities 🏘️⚠️ The challenge is not just to expand computing capacity, but to do so in a way that respects the cities we live in 🏙️🩵 @eesionline.org Read more here 👉🏽 n9.cl/tkl0a
We are thrilled to welcome @ucl.ac.uk to our team! 👏 With strong interdisciplinary expertise in urban research, health, environment and policy, UCL will help strengthen our work towards more effective and equitable solutions for healthier cities. 🌱
🏙️Pollution in cities is not only measured in the air or in decibels, it is also lived and perceived by citizens. 🌆ATMOPOLIS brings together environmental and social sciences to understand how air and noise pollution affect everyday life in European cities. 🌍
🤖 Can machine learning turn pollution data into health forecasts? A recent study published in @nature.com used AI to predict respiratory disease cases from air pollution and weather data. This data could be used to make cities healthier 👉https://doi.org/q57q
😷 Europe’s air quality is improving, but urban pollution remains a major challenge. The latest EEA report warns that more action is needed to meet #2030targets, especially on ground-level ozone, linked to 63,000 deaths in the EU 🔗 shorturl.at/ZvikT
Last April, #ATMOPOLIS joined the @acusti_cat. @OriolMarquet (@acusti_cat) shared ideas on noise & air pollution and how to fight for sustainable cities 🌍🏙️ They also introduced the photovoice methodology 📸💬 led by @gemottuab #ATMOPOLIS #AirQuality #NoisePollution #HorizonEurope
