I fully agree Peter, never shy when it is about putting public health. My point is that health connect everything and is the most powerfully aegument. Air pollution is linked to health, to climate change, to sustainable societies, to equity, to economy, to urban planning…

"The more we associate air pollution with the climate crisis, the more political and harder it can be. Talking about health impacts makes it easier, and this is the winning strategy" I'm not sure I agree, I think we need to link air pollution to everything, not shy away from harder arguments. 9/n

Happy that the Global Conference on Air Pollution and Health, taking place in Cartagena, Colombia on 25 March, will give us the opportunity to learn more from the London ULEZ experience! @tedrosgbelay.bsky.social @who.int @london.gov.uk rb.gy/wmnfek

Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan@london.gov.uk · last yr.

ULEZ works. It’s that simple. Expanding the Ultra Low Emission Zone wasn’t a decision I took lightly, but the latest figures show that it was the right one for the health of millions of Londoners.

A graphic with a blue sky background and white clouds. The text reads: "Harmful NO2 levels are estimated to be lower in 2024 compared to a scenario without ULEZ". The reductions are listed as follows: Central London – 54% lower, Inner London – 29% lower, Outer London – 24% lower. A source link at the bottom reads: london.gov.uk/ulez.

It’s not every day you get an award with an astronaut, a political scientist, a legend in dance, champions of education and democracy, a brilliant thinker, and a writer with an exquisite narrative. Great honor to be one of the 8! 🙏to the Fundacion Ortega-Marañon @fortegamaranon

Health action on climate change means protection from extreme weather and infectious disease, health facilities with reliable & clean energy and water, breathing clean air, healthy diets… No surprise that most countries, and most people, support it. healthpolicy-watch.news/strong-suppo...
