https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health Thanks to legislation, technology and moves away from heavily polluting fossil fuels in many countries, Europe’s air quality has been improving in recent decades. However, many people continue to be negatively affected by air pollution, especially in cities. Given its complexity, tackling air pollution requires taking coordinated action at many levels. To get citizens involved, providing them timely information in an accessible way is essential. Our recently launched Air Quality Index does just that. Improvements in air quality would not only benefit our health, but could also help tackle climate change. en Plone https://www.eea.europa.eu/eea-print-logo.gif https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.151759.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.151759.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.151759.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:27:37 GMT Laura Cernahoschi https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/Hans_Bruyninckx.jpg/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/Hans_Bruyninckx.jpg/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/Hans_Bruyninckx.jpg/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 13:53:29 GMT Gülcin KARADENIZ https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.151759.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.151759.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.151759.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:27:26 GMT Laura Cernahoschi https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy_of_airquality.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:25:04 GMT Laura Cernahoschi https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy2_of_airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy2_of_airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/copy2_of_airquality.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:29:07 GMT Laura Cernahoschi https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.png/view?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic <p><img src="https://www.eea.europa.eu/articles/cleaner-air-benefits-human-health/airquality.png/image_mini" /></p><p></p> Wed, 13 Dec 2017 14:24:59 GMT Laura Cernahoschi
