And that’s according to the old EU norms, we don’t come close to the much stricter WHO norms.

Edit: Yes I know people need alternatives. Make clean energy (nuclear, solar, wind, etc.) abundant and cheap. This is a very solvable policy problem, there’s no excuse.
Fucking ban it already. Should have happened a long time ago.
Too much traffic jams, call for not driving cars anymore.
Too much fossil fuels burned , call for stopping using electricity.
Too much pensioners, call for
Net thuis ga hem sebiet wel aansteken tis wat frisjes
I walk everyday from my house to my office and it’s been intolerable, I am thinking of buying a mask. Most of what I breath is from cars and scooter driving on the bicycle path and then someone smoking would start walking past…
I thought it was forbidden to burn wood in my commune under these weather conditions but of-course there’s an exception for rooms that don’t have central heating…
In other words it’s not forbidden cuz cops are not going to go door to door in order to check who has central heating or not.
Isn’t it easier to half the population to help with air quality? Or prohibited cities for less mass living together?
I mean, why just stop at prohibiting wood burning alone.
