Air pollution has changed over time, with sources evolving from wood burning and smelting to widespread fossil fuel use, industrial emissions, and intensified wildfires.
New air quality measurement technology is not just changing the way we monitor air pollution; it's rewriting the rules on air quality management, enabling a shift towards more precise, effective environmental regulations.
Sean Wihera, our VP of Business Development and Partnerships, joins us in conversation about his experience on the Environmental Technologies Trade Advisory Committee (ETTAC) working to advise on the export of environmental technologies.
The COVID-19 pandemic served as a reminder of the air pollution exposure disparities experienced by underresourced communities and the intersections between air quality, health, and environmental justice.
The IRA is a boon for environmental justice concerns voiced by communities regarding air quality — however, it faces three core issues to effectively address air pollution.

While air pollution has well-recognized effects on the lungs and cardiovascular system, it also significantly impacts the brain, adversely affecting cognitive and mental health.
By recognizing the multitude of impacts that air quality has on other sectors, we can leverage the co-benefits that come with cleaner air to galvanize action.
Climate change and air pollution are both global environmental crises with enormous health, economic, and environmental impacts — but also environmental justice issues.
As air quality monitoring technology progresses to allow for more localized, specialized measurement of air pollutants, air quality policy has also become more targeted.
Low-cost sensors can be used in a wide range of different air quality monitoring projects, either alone or in conjunction with reference-grade air quality monitors.
