Monitoring Air Quality
The modern take on existence could well be, “You are the air you breathe,” highlighting the importance of monitoring air quality. As societies notch up higher degrees of modernisation, one of the fallouts is the quality of natural elements that are in danger of being affected; therefore, monitoring air quality is key to people’s welfare. This becomes even more critical in controlled indoor environments, which is why regular AC duct cleaning in the Middle East is essential for hospitals, schools, and commercial buildings. In a region where AC systems run almost year-round, dust, sand, and microbial buildup can severely impact indoor air quality, influencing both health and operational efficiency.
Water, air and land have borne the brunt of mankind’s post-industrial progress, and in many cities across the world, air quality is a cause of deep concern. By proposing a UAE-wide air quality network that will regularly analyse the state of the environment, His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has addressed an important urban issue that lies at the core of people’s well-being.
Poor Quality Air and Its Impact
Poor quality air, due to industrial or traffic pollution, can lead to a host of illnesses and diminish an individual’s quality of life, as has been shown by research on many mega cities of the world that have an alarming rate of pollutants in their air. Monitoring, and improving, air quality on a regular basis is crucial for a healthy society. In proposing this network, UAE reiterates its commitment to the welfare of its people and ensures its environmental goals are on track.
