Air Watch - Monitoring Air Pollution in the Blue Mountains
About this event
Happening soon at 4pm!
The Air Watch team of Blue Mountains Unions & Community wants you to know about their campaign to reinstall air pollution monitors with publicly available data in almost real time across the Blue Mountains and Lithgow communities. Our event is one of the Blue Mountains Environmental Sustainability Network's "Let’s Showcase What We Are Doing, Even During Lockdown" online events.
In our area we can rapidly go from unpolluted air to choking bushfire smoke. Hear about the campaign to monitor and share air quality information from a panel with expertise in local environmental activism, environment science, and protecting workers health and safety.
Chaired by Peter Lammiman of BMUC's Air Watch team.
Speakers:
Julie Favell - Lithgow Environment Group
