Another culprit behind climate change has been identified. Small particles in the atmosphere, such as fine dust produced by humans, have also been found to melt Arctic sea ice. > www.mk.co.kr/en/it/11394167 #ClimateCrisis #SeaIce #Dust #Particulates #Atmosphere #Arctic #Russia #Alaska
The challenge is that it isn't always just #Wildfire #Smoke with #Particulates that causes #AirQualityAlerts sometimes it is #Ozone too. And that is a challenge to come up with analogies. But Cigarettes with the smoke & particulates is always a good one. Messaging on that has been strong & effective
Roads Whilst legislation has been effective at reducing emissions of PM from the exhausts of internal combustion engines, the non-exhaust emissions (NEE) proportion of road traffic has increased13. Data from the UK National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory indicate that particles from brake wear, tyre wear and road surface wear currently constitute 60% and 73% (by mass), respectively, of primary PM2.5 and PM10 emissions from road transport, and will become more dominant in the future. That is approximately 7.4% and 8.5% of all UK primary PM2.5 and PM10 emissions, collectively exceeding those from the exhaust of the UK vehicle fleet.
The City of Edinburgh Council The City of Edinburgh Council – 2025 Draft PM10 Air Quality Action Plan 17 Resuspended road dust is not estimated in the national inventory; however, it constitutes a significant road PM source14. Dust can accumulate on road surfaces from natural mineralogy e.g. soils or industrial sources e.g. sand, cement processing, and it is often heavily contaminated with brake and tyre wear. Some of this material is in the PM10 size range when depositing to the road surface and the action of tyres on surface dusts may also cause some grinding leading to the creation of smaller particles. Such particles are easily suspended from the road surface, both by shear forces at the tyre-road interface and by atmospheric turbulence in the wake of the vehicle. Elevated wind speeds also contribute to the resuspension of surface dust. The most effective mitigation strategies for NEE are to reduce the overall volume of traffic, lower the speed where traffic is free-flowing (e.g. trunk roads and motorways), and promote driving behaviour that reduces braking and higher-speed cornering. Resuspension of particles from the road surface can be lowered by reducing the material that is tracked onto public road surfaces by vehicle movements in and out of the docks, construction sites, waste-management sites and other similar sites; and potentially by road sweeping, street washing and application of dust suppressants to street surfaces, although the impacts on airborne PM from trials of these latter approaches have so far proven inconsistent and any benefits have been short-lived.
