The only solution is to ban cars inside cities.
Wait till you take a gander at Belgrade.
Just like Cholera was endemic to cities before major infrastructure upheavals to water and sewerage made it a thing of the past, the only thing standing between the past and the future of urban air pollution is a willingness to do the work of solving the problem. Public transit, pedestrianization, renewable energy, automotive electrification.
In 20 years we’ll be shocked about why we didn’t ban fossil cars from cities sooner.
