A recently released report by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has shed light on the escalating frequency and intensity of heatwaves, which are significantly deteriorating air quality across the globe. This worsening air quality is driven by a combination of factors, including wildfires and desert dust intrusions, highlighting the complex interplay between climate and air quality.
The 2023 WMO Air Quality and Climate Bulletin, the third in an annual series, underlines that it`s not just the soaring temperatures during heatwaves that pose a threat; rather, it`s the often-overlooked pollution consequences that carry profound implications for human health and the environment.
