Air Pollution - Beyond Air Quality™

Air pollution is undeniably the most significant single environmental and health risk to face humanity.

According to the World Health Organisation, each year, 7 million people die prematurely as a result of poor air quality.

Air pollution is arguably also the most significant contributor to Climate Change, which is the defining issue of our time. From shifting weather patterns that threaten food production to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, the impact of Climate Change is global in scope and unprecedented in scale.

Carbon emissions, particulate matter (dust), and volatile organic compounds are just some of the pollutants that in the near to medium term will radically impact our ability to survive and thrive as a species.

Improving our air quality improves health, increases productivity, and saves lives. A healthy society is not only happier; it is also more productive.

Beyond Air Quality™ helps our clients identify the pollutant type, the point of origin, the concentration levels, as well as the direction and distance of travel. This critical data is essential to solving the problem and empowering communities, industries, and governments to craft measurable, impactful, and sustainable interventions.

Indoor air quality also impacts our health and productivity: Mould, dust, poor ventilation, carbon dioxide build-up, volatile organic compounds carried by HVAC systems as well as indoor temperature, and humidity levels all determine our health, comfort, productivity, and general wellbeing.

Beyond Air Quality™ plays an integral role in understanding the factors driving the exponential increase in air quality related diseases and climate change.

Beyond Air Quality™ provides historical and real-time visibility of air quality metrics, enabling trend analysis and sending critical alerts to the right people at the right time to ensure that air quality safety standards and regulations are adequately maintained and enforced.

Beyond Air Quality™ enables our clients and partners to gather air quality data efficiently and affordably from more assets in more locations than ever before. The increased coverage, resolution, and accessibility of the data empowers communities and regulators with the tools and the information they need to make informed decisions that translate into impactful and sustainable actions.
