Improving air quality in the City of London
The City of London has been working with City businesses to develop a list of simple, effective actions that can be taken by companies to help improve air quality in the Square Mile.
We are asking all businesses to take small steps to reduce emissions of pollutants associated with buildings and transport. This could be the transport choice of employees, emissions associated with deliveries or with heating and cooling buildings. It all contributes to poor air quality.
Please take time to read the summary document below and see if you can reduce your emissions. If you feel you can help, the best practice document has more extensive guidance, complete with case studies and advice.
Most importantly get involved: apply to use the CityAir logo at cityair@cityoflondon.gov.uk when you're ready to take action.
Follow us on Twitter @_CityAir for the latest information.
