Celebrating the finale of #AirQuality AwarenessWeek !

UrbanBetter Cityzens joined forces with LASEPA representatives to raise awareness about air pollution in Ikeja and Bariga, Lagos. The message is clear: let's adopt practices that promote good #AirQuality !

Using precision advocacy and air quality sensors from AirQo , I co-led a run 🏃‍♂️ highlighting that “vehicular emissions and the use of generators are the major causes of air pollution in Lagos and we need a cut down.' It's time for action to ensure cleaner air for all!💨

The recently launched Air Quality Standards by National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), are a much needed & timely boost for Uganda to address air pollution.
