It really is the most beautiful city with the freshest air.
At least where I live, it’s gotten so much better since the nationwide smoky fuel ban. As an asthmatic I am highly sensitive to air pollution but I haven’t had any issues this winter.
Depending on the weather, air pollution can be really localised. The official EPA reading can be good but the actual air pollution on my street can be really bad. And it caused by one or two people on the street burning smoky fuel.
“As far as what is making Ireland so clean right now, wet weather definitely plays a role as it can dilute pollution. Winds also play a large role, filtering out particulate matter.”
Anytime anyone complains about the wind and rain, remind them of the above.
Windy and wet. Certainly not the result of a successful policy.
Pity the city is a dump
The air quality always noticeably drops once the weather gets colder and all the boilers, fireplaces and stoves start polluting the air. Airing out the house usually makes the air inside worse.

City is still a sh*thole
Better introduce a clean air tax so
