We have been keen for @AndyBurnhamGM to publically speak out about the link between health and air pollution for a while so great to see he has committed to do this!

Asthma + Lung UK@asthmalunguk

Wonderful to meet @AndyBurnhamGM to hand in 50 stories and pictures from #OurManchesterOurAir event, and agree the importance of publicly linking air pollution and long-term health impacts. This is the beginning of collaborative working with communities fighting for #CleanAir. @greatermcr

MCR has the highest levels of pollution from cars in UK with car ownership increasing nearly 4x national average & 13% yr on yr congestion increaae. What about the prospect of higher levels of asthma hanging over our children's developing lungs? This is nothing to be proud of.

Greater Manchester's Clean Air Plan has been approved by Defra. It does not go anywhere near far enough. Please share our joint statement with @foemcr, @MumsForLungs, @asthmalunguk and @talkcleanairWR: letmanchesterbreathe.org/news/coalition…

We're disappointed to hear that the government has approved GM's unambitous & risky Clean Air Plan which may possibly achieve UK compliance for NO2 levels by 2027 (2 X as high as targets for EU and 4 X higher than @WHO targets). Read out joint statement letmanchesterbreathe.org/news/coalition…

It's been a year since we met with @MayorofGM to ask for more to be done to clean up the air in GM. Since then pollution levels have increased and we're still no nearer to having a GM plan to reduce them any time soon.

So pleased to have the opportunity to talk #CleanAir with @MayorofGM & @CllrTR today. Thanks to @Afzal4Gorton for organising and the amazing Green Team from @StMargaretsWR for helping with our campaign.

How much #AirPollution is created when you burn wood? 👉 Defra approved/#Ecodesign stove = 400 times more polluting than a gas boiler. 👉 Open fire = 4000 times more polluting than a gas boiler. Please think twice about burning. #WoodBurning mumsforlungs.org/news/wood-burn…

Big names including DHL, DPD, and UPS are ditching diesel for cleaner alternatives. The shift to electric and pedal-powered deliveries is vital to reduce air pollution. Want to know find out more? 👉 cleancitiescampaign.org/research-list/…

This is incredibly disappointing. Millions spent already and nothing to show for it. GM has some of the worse levels of NO2 in the country and yet is still no nearer to bringing levels down to protect the health and wellbeing of its population

Sarah Rowe@Little_Rowe

Yesterday GM announced an update to its Clean Air Plan, effectively pushing back the date when it thinks it can meet compliance with the UK *legal* limits on NO2 (one of the most harmful pollutants) for another year. manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-m…
