[Stoves] Nairobi's in and outdoor air pollution.

[Cookswell Jikos]

An interesting read from The Conversation on air quality in Nairobi, Kenya.

''The modelling showed that while price controls may be effective
initially, sustaining gains in air quality and health outcomes will require
a combination of different measures. The results also show that only
targeting household air pollution isn’t enough.

Because indoor and outdoor air pollutants constantly interact with each
other as air moves in and out of people’s homes, the greatest gains will
only be realised when outdoor air pollution is addressed effectively.

But it’s easy to focus on ambient air pollution which is more visible and
ignore the problem within households. That’s why policymakers need to
ensure that both challenges are monitored and addressed. Reducing exposure
to both indoor and outdoor air pollution is critical to improving health
outcomes for vulnerable populations in the informal settlements in Africa’s
cities.''

Does anyone have anymore information on this study?

Best,

Teddy
