Brought to you by Chemistry

Show Notes

How bad is London's air quality compared to other cities? How do we measure the success of policies such as ULEZ? Are 15 minute cities the future solutions for improving our health and environment?

In part 1 of our discussion around air quality policies, we speak with Dr. Audrey de Nazelle, a Senior Lecturer at the Centre of Environmental Policy. Audrey is also co-chair of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology. Covering a variety of nuances around the subject of air quality policy, Dr. Audrey, and host Dr. Alex Lathbridge, explore air pollution management, changing citizens health behaviour, and the critical role of urban planning when improving air quality.

Hosted by Dr. Alex Lathbridge.

Produced by Hiren Joshi, Lizzy Ratcliffe, Hannah Macdonald. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
