Tackling clean air in Sheffield and the wider region
Air quality affects everyone - wherever we live we all want to breathe clean air. Air pollution is thought to account for over 28,000 deaths per year in the UK and is associated with poor physical and mental health. Tackling air pollution is crucial for protecting public health, preserving the environment, and ensuring a sustainable future.
Air pollution is a complex problem that affects our health and environment. Addressing it requires experts from a range of fields working together, from scientists studying the air and doctors understanding health impacts to architects designing cleaner buildings. We also need to consider how people behave and how policies can help us all breathe easier.
Sheffield:Air is an interdisciplinary research group dedicated to addressing air pollution through collaborative and action-oriented research. Our research looks into real-world solutions that improve air quality and public health in Sheffield and the wider region.
