The Guardian | New research shows that Monterrey’s rapid industrial boom is producing extreme levels of toxic air pollution, exposing millions of residents to dangerous heavy metals and fine particulates and creating one of the worst air-quality crises in North America.

Stanford Report – Stanford University | A new national study finds that gas and propane stoves emit enough nitrogen dioxide to raise risks of asthma, cancer, and other illnesses, and shows that switching to electric stoves could cut Americans’ exposure to this harmful pollutant by more than half.

Nature | A study found that when COVID-19 restrictions on dining out were lifted, London’s air quality worsened.

The Indian Express | The Supreme Court said Delhi-NCR air pollution must be addressed year-round rather than only in winter, urged depoliticizing the stubble-burning debate, questioned its role as the primary cause, and asked the Centre to outline concrete short- and long-term measures before the next hearing on December 10.

European Environment Agency – European Union | An EEA report shows that although air-pollution-related health impacts in Europe have fallen significantly over the past two decades, with EU premature deaths from fine particulates down 57%, about 95% of urban residents are still exposed to pollution levels above WHO guidelines, underscoring the urgent need for stronger clean-air measures.

Sacramento Bee | The NWS San Diego issued an air quality alert affecting parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange counties from Sunday morning until Monday at 7:45 a.m.

Awaz The Voice | A large UCL-led study found that although regular exercise lowers the risk of death, long-term exposure to high levels of fine particulate air pollution substantially weakens these health benefits.
