The CleanAir @ School project is a Citizen Science and environmental education initiative of the EPA Network (the network of European environmental agencies), coordinated by the EEA (European Environment Agency). |
The project was created in the midst of the covid-19 emergency but looks far ahead, preparing the country for new pandemic situations, trying to understand: the link between air pollution and the spread of the pandemic, if the PM can carry out an action of transport of a virus, whether the toxic chemical compounds that make up the PM can inactivate the virus and whether the bio-aerosol can transport viable viral particles over long distances, as well as the effects of "lockdown" on atmospheric concentrations of pollutants and greenhouse gases. |
