Air Pollution Leads To Almost 200 Deaths

This comes as the Central Office of Public Interest (Copi) and Imperial College London have created the most detailed map to date of air pollution in the UK.

The website tells you about pollution levels for where you live and shows nearly every home in the UK is subjected to air pollution above World Health Organisation guidelines. It will tell you about levels of pollutants PM2.5 and PM10, which are small particles in the air that can cause lung problems, and in the case of PM2.5 can cause cancer, as well as Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), which can increase the risk of disease-related mortality. You can find it here.
