We are hitting the national media for poor air quality. Nothing has been done about the ten year old Air Quality Management Areas in Poole, and the real time air quality index whose only monitors are in Christchurch and Bournemouth, frequently show levels that keep large sections of the population indoors. If you don’t know anyone with a heart condition or asthma you won’t know what I mean, but anyone with these conditions is well aware when it is a high pollution day, even if they don’t know that that is what is making their symptoms worse.
