Super excited about this!! Are you an atmospheric chemist? Then come along to this new conference supported by @ncas-uk.bsky.social @ukceh.bsky.social and @nceoscience.bsky.social
So many ideas today at the British Academy conference on communicating #airpollution.
Some great highlights in @peteknapp.bsky.social 's thread from the day....
Totally - weβre looking at ways to scale up and out, eg deployment via the health service
@marianeira.bsky.social from WHO - we need to think more about marketing in relation to air quality - eg influencers to mobilise attention, Mums (and Dads!) are powerful in this space, need to frame it as a health problem
Karine LΓ©ger from @airparif.bsky.social talking of the challenges of βscience as an opinionβ and the rise in fake news in the air pollution world
@drgaryfuller.bsky.social highlighting issues with air pollution limit values, considered as a ceiling to pollute up to and the idea that below this is safe and above you should do something. Also moving from doom & gloom towards a positive vision of what a healthy air future could look like.
There is! Hopefully itβs still possible to sign up - www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/events/briti...
Super excited to be here today and to be presenting alongside so many interesting folk. Looking forward to a day of discussing air pollution communication π£
Iβm really looking forward to this π

First post π so so excited to annouce that registration is now OPEN for my dream conference β‘οΈ Communicating Air Quality: Digital, Physical, and Theoretical Advances - co-delivered with @andrewgrieve.bsky.social @karldudman.bsky.social - register here: www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/events/briti...
Calling all (future) atmospheric scientists! We have the perfect course for you: ncas.ac.uk/study-with-u...
We've seen in Scottish villages that people believe traffic is the main air pollutant. However, it's when people look at their local #AirPollution data and see evening peaks in particulate matter that their perceptions begin to change.
Yes, totally. That's why projects like Forth-ERA where we're monitoring #AirQuality in smaller cities, towns and villages is important, too #Stirlingshire #Clackmannanshire www.stir.ac.uk/about/scotla...
Iβm at the Royal Society of Chemistry in London today hearing about the latest updates in air quality researchβ¦.looking forward to the day ahead! #AirPollution
Great to see Starmer acknowledge children shouldn't breathe air pollution.
"I don't want my children breathing dirty air."
But the Govt is failing. 99.8% of schools in England are in areas where fine particulate pollution is above safe levels π§΅
