The European Union bloc auditors have made it clear that most governments in the region are ignoring the air quality limits notwithstanding that it is far lower than the recommended standard set by the World Health Organizations – and as much as one thousand European lives are lost prematurely every day owing to this menace. This death toll, according to a watchdog, is over ten times the lives lost to road accidents.

Studies: Poor Solar Generation Linked To Air Pollution
Solar energy is one of the widely advocated renewable energy sources.
Many countries that are aiming to cut down carbon emission choose solar energy particularly regions with ample daylight. Also, it is easy to light remote areas using solar power compared to other alternative energy sources. Inasmuch as solar energy sounds promising in cutting down the burning of fossil for energy, a new study has shown that airborne particles can reduce energy output of solar cells by an alarming twenty-five percent in some parts of the world.

Our ecosystem plays a major role in shaping our lives
We are calling on all consumers, manufacturers, policymakers, and national leaders to adopt conservative ethics geared towards reduction of air pollution. It is time we need to rethink those practices and traditions that promote pollution and forge a new legacy which we would pass on to the next generation.
