Clean Air for Blue Skies

11 Oct

As part of Expo 2020 Dubai and dedicated to UN Day, the latest ‘Clean Air for Blue Skies’ session will be held on 12 Oct at The Swiss Pavilion, in collaboration with the Swiss Embassy and the EU Delegation in Abu Dhabi.

Did you know that air pollution was responsible for 8.7 million deaths in 2018 alone? That was 1 in 5 global deaths that year.

Earth Matters’ Managing Director Tanzeed Alam will be once again moderating this session, discussing the best practices in air quality management in the private transport and logistics sector, and positive impact of clean air on public health, climate change and economic development.
