“Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has achieved a historic milestone by launching a real-time air quality monitoring dashboard. City residents can access live air quality updates, location-specific AQI, and an interactive map with a color-coded system ranging from good (green) to hazardous (red). With 18 Clarity air quality sensors installed across the city, the system supports evidence-based policymaking and promotes public awareness to safeguard the health of all—especially youth and vulnerable groups.”

"Having real-time, very hyper-local data about the air quality where you are spending your time has great potential to impact people, in terms of the decisions they make, but also in terms of making that connection between the environment and health." 

“We chose Clarity because they provided up-to-date, local, scientifically-backed, and relevant data to make decisions about whether to keep students inside. Because of the geography and demographics in our county, the official air monitoring stations are about an hour away with hills in between, providing irrelevant data. We would have poor air quality and the official stations would be cleared; or the official stations would show heavy particulate levels and we would have clean air."

"The data provided by the sensors helped to speed up the city’s decision-making. Today, the sensor readings have had a direct impact on public opinion. This year, we launched public ecological transport and eco-taxi, and we are launching a new system of dedicated public transport lanes that will directly affect the transition to eco-friendly modes of transportation.”

“With Clarity's hyperlocal network, we can begin to provide a more complete picture of how air pollution is occurring in a given micro region, and what preventive actions we need to take to minimize exposure. We can also measure the effectiveness of each activity taken by measuring concentrations BEFORE and AFTER that activity. This encourages us to think about policies that we want to change. It raises citizen awareness and creates a narrative that influences positive change. We need to know what the air is like NOW AND IMMEDIATELY, at each MICRO location, to react IMMEDIATELY, and to sanction those who are disrupting our health, the future of our youngest, and the future of our country. Every citizen of the municipality of Strumica has a strong ally in such innovative technology."

"Air quality is a hidden issue in the sense that it's become so embedded in aspects of urban life in San Francisco. It can be a challenge for residents who have been living in the neighborhood for a long time to articulate what their air quality issues are. Some have just accepted it as a way of life.”
