What is in the air we breathe?
Air pollution and particles affect both our health and the environment. At IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, we conduct research in order to learn more about the dispersion and impacts of different types of air pollution.
Despite many successes in reducing emissions of air pollutants, air quality is still poor in many parts of the world. Few Swedish cities meet national environmental objectives or WHO air quality guidelines.
Tackling both long-range and local air pollution requires strong action. We are exploring ways forward through both interdisciplinary research and individual assignments. The major challenge going forward is to simultaneously reduce emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases; here we work policy-oriented and internationally in various networks and bodies. Most of our work on the air environment is based on analyses in our own laboratory.
