I want a world where everyone has the right to clean air, so, so, SO much.
Unfortunately, I will never experience that. As there will always be people who disagrees and will do everything in their power to force a false compromise, of allowing way more pollution to exist/happen, than we ever sensibly should.

Anyone who has walked around London or taken the tube knows this. Just do it for a few hours, then use a baby wipe to clean your nostrils. It will be filled with soot and carbon.
N95s+ are a decent way of blocking a lot of pollutive particles.

I was eleven months old and my brother was born in the London smog of 1952 when busses were being guided by men walking in front of them with lamps. I suppose we were lucky back then as it only lasted until the weather changed and blew the smogs away.

I have a different point of view.
As a fact you know yourself or your children’s respiratory system is fragile, then you might teach him/her to wear a medical mask to protect their lungs.
Biologically and ironically saying, those who can’t adapt to air pollution might be a part of natural selection.
In my point of view, if you want to live inside a convenient urban society, you MUST bear with the constant pollution produced by those “convenient” infrastructure. Else, go back to countryside and have nature surrounding you, but requires a 1 hour drive to commute to work or school.
And you might ask, “what about electric vehicles?”
Friend, as you might know the electricity is mostly produced by fossil fuel such as coal and gasoline. The power plant and the pollution is just not there around you. Transferred to NIMBY places you’ll never visit.The pollution is always there. It’s just a matter of where, and it’s mostly about sacrifice.
Ramon Quiroz

Breathing air pollution is not natural. The industrial revolution came with unfortunate side effects. And to that whole natural selection spiel… It’s akin to saying that if you have dirty water you should just accept it and “adapt” to it. We should all knowingly drink this impure water and risk getting a disease. And then there’s people like you saying “oh that person wasn’t strong enough or cutout for this world” knowing well that we are partaking in something that is or could be biologically harmful. Instead of just accepting and letting natural selection/evolution take its course as you say, why not do something about it and purify this dirty water. But now in our case, make this polluted air clean again.

Because some of the unwanted heavy polluting industries have moved from developed countries to developing countries just because of the stricter environmental guidelines nowadays.
In my opinion, we should care more about developing countries than those developed countries.

Or even in some people’s faces literally. I’ve seen videos of cyclists getting coal-rolled like that. It’s truly abhorrent behaviour.
