Today, 7 September, marks the fifth edition of International Clean Air Day for Blue Skies.
This year’s theme is ‘It’s Time to Invest in Clean Air Now’.
This theme is especially relevant since air quality has direct implications for public health, causing respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, as well as affecting the climate and ecosystems.
By investing in clean air, we are also promoting a more sustainable future.
How about starting today to adopt small actions that make a difference?
- Take up cycling or walking whenever possible;
- Plant trees and create green spaces;
- Reduce, reuse and recycle to cut down on pollution;
- Take public transport or carpool to reduce emissions.
Record your actions on video or photo and share them on your social networks.
Use the hashtag #CleanAirForEveryone and be part of this mobilisation.
Every little gesture counts and together we can create a healthier and more sustainable future.
Together, let’s inspire more people to take care of our air and our planet!
