Engaging with the community

Building consensus street by street
We believe that the broader community, including community organizations, should be engaged in designing and implementing both the community air monitoring network and any subsequent actions or measures to address air pollution.ย
Air pollution is, above all, a process โ with many actors and factors. There are human actors. There are economic and infrastructure factors as well as purely natural ones such as topography and meteorology. There are also social factors such as public awareness of the matter.
If our goal is to reduce the risks posed by poor air quality to our health, to our agriculture and our ecosystems, we must find out where in this process we can intervene with the maximum benefit โ- and, if possible, with the minimum expense. Obviously, we cannot do anything about the geographical situation of Sรณller or its topography. Nor will we be able to do much about its climate.
We must engage, therefore, with the human actors, with the entire community. Robust engagement with community stakeholders and residents, who are directly impacted by dirty air, is critical when creating thoughtful, responsive, and impactful clean air solutions. Engagement through one-on-one interviews, focus groups, and citizen science campaigns will help co-produce knowledge, increase self-efficacy among community members, and ultimately build trust and ensure better results and help build political support for action.
Data from the air monitoring networkย should be made available to the community in accessible, understandable, accurate, and useful formats.
We must look for community consensus. Air pollution has a range of human causes: cars and vehicles โ and remember we have almost as many vehicles as inhabitants in Sรณller; also the burning of prunings and farm waste at certain times of day thanks to our dramatic and unique topography; and, thirdly, the emissions from our wood-burning stoves.ย
In short, we all share the blame and we all share the consequences. And we must, therefore, share a commitment.

A commitment to inform ourselves. A commitment to get involved in educating ourselves and others about air quality. And a commitment to do as much as we can to minimise the risks to ourselves and others.
We believe that real change will only come from an engaged, informed public, one that is aware of the issue and that actively participates in finding solutions. Indeed, the Aarhus Convention recognises our right to participate in the formulation of plans relating to the environment and empowers us to do so.
Finally, creating opportunities for diverse community members to participate throughout the development of our network can also contribute to its success by:
- Leveraging their capacities, knowledge, and social networks
- Building capacity and awareness in the community about air quality and its potential health impacts
- Strengthening local credibility of the network and the data that it produces.
- Increasing the likelihood that network data will be used to support actions that reduce exposure and pollution sources

Sempre que mir, mai està ni regular a sa zona dels estiradors, iper sant jaume, on els dos semàfors, el que no comprenc és que al diari veu de Sóller, a da portada, hi ha un petit mapa on sempre diu que es respirable, i cuan clikes i obris, veus que no és així com es possible aixo? Gràcies.

Los investigadores dicen que la exposiciรณn a largo plazo incluso a niveles relativamente bajos de PM2,5 aumenta el riesgo de depresiรณn y ansiedad.
Al realizar un seguimiento de la incidencia de depresiรณn y ansiedad en casi 389.185 adultos del Reino Unido durante 11 aรฑos, los investigadores descubrieron que quienes vivรญan en รกreas con mayor contaminaciรณn tenรญan mรกs probabilidades de sufrir episodios de depresiรณn y ansiedad, incluso cuando la calidad del aire estaba dentro de los lรญmites oficiales. La concentraciรณn mediana de contaminantes PM2,5 fue de 9,9 (9,3-10,6) ฮผg/m3. En Sรณller la cifra es de 9,28 (datos 2021).
Escribiendo en el Journal of the American Medical Association Psychiatry, los investigadores, de las universidades de Oxford y Beijing y el Imperial College London, han dicho que los resultados de su estudio sugirieron la necesidad de regulaciones mรกs estrictas para el control de la contaminaciรณn del aire.
A medida que aumentaba la contaminaciรณn del aire, tambiรฉn lo hacรญan los casos de depresiรณn y ansiedad. Sin embargo, las curvas de exposiciรณn-respuesta no fueron lineales, sino muestran pendientes mรกs pronunciadas en niveles mรกs bajos y tendencias estables en exposiciones mรกs altas, lo que sugiere que la exposiciรณn a largo plazo a niveles bajos de contaminaciรณn tenรญa la misma probabilidad de resultar en diagnรณsticos de depresiรณn que la exposiciรณn a niveles mรกs altos.
Por ejemplo, el riesgo aumenta cuando la concentraciรณn de PM2,5 sube de 8 a 10 ฮผg/m3, para despuรฉs mantenerse estable.
Significa que si en Sรณller logramos reducir el nivel solo un 20% podrรญamos eliminar el riesgo para la salud mental que supone la contaminaciรณn por partรญculas PM 2,5.
El estudio, publicado ayer, se titula"Exposiciรณn a largo plazo a mรบltiples contaminantes del aire ambiental y su asociaciรณn con incidentes de depresiรณn y ansiedad". (Long-term Exposure to Multiple Ambient Air Pollutants and Association With Incident Depression and Anxiety)

La nostra xarxa de sensors s'ha quedat reduรฏt a nomรฉs quatre i necessitem incorporar un mรญnim de quatre sensors nous per a cobrir el municipi. De la xarxa original de 12 nomรฉs queda un, i hem posat tres nous enguany.
La nova generaciรณ de monitors sรณn millors, perรฒ costen mรฉs tambรฉ.
>Mesuren partรญcules PM 10 i PM 2.5.
>Mesuren humitat relativa, pressiรณ i temperatura.
>Incorporen ara un petit calefactor que asseca l'aire. Normalment, hem de descartar dades quan la humitat relativa superi un 70% (cosa que ocorre sovint a les illes). Ara no caldrร descartar cap dada.
>Tรฉ una antena wifi. Ens proporciona mรฉs flexibilitat a l'hora de situar els sensors.
Per 117 euros (cadascun) podem incorporar aquests monitors a la nostra xarxa. Si vols colยทlocar un a la teva casa o negoci, posa't en contacte amb nosaltres. Tambรฉ es pot compartir la despesa entre diversos amics!
