Air pollution is invisible, but that doesn’t make it non-existent. Pollutants like particulate matter (PM₁, PM_2.5, PM₁₀) come from a host of sources, be it transport, or construction, and cause health problems from breathlessness, to asthma, to cancer. Due to the wide range of sources, local authorities, construction companies, and engineers should be using air quality monitors that provide trustworthy measurements and reliable data. Choosing just any monitor could mean improper decisions as a result of inaccurate information, and people that are not properly protected from air pollution.
