The effect air pollution has on human well-being is an ongoing cause for concern. In this respect, the correlation between traffic density, air quality and health condition is sufficiently documented. Therefore, the need to take measures to prevent the negative consequences of this triangle cannot be delayed any longer.
However, when it comes to implementing these preventive and corrective measures, it is not only health factors that must be taken into account. It is also convenient to consider the implicit economic and social impacts, which can shape the success of the strategy to be developed.
How can all these elements and interests be combined? Possibly one of the best approaches is to start by effectively measuring the different variables. The aim is to determine the degree of participation of each factor in the equation. Initiatives such as Smart Pamplona Lab and the Kunak Green Move project create the ideal framework for highlighting the value of new technologies in outdoor air quality sensors, in our case the Kunak AIR Pro.
