BBC World News
BBC World News offers international audiences dedicated programming examining the causes and possible solutions to air pollution.
A special documentary, Dust Storm, explores the growing menace created by these phenomena. From satellites observing dust in the atmosphere, to a supercomputer in a former church in Barcelona forecasting dust storms in the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, the team look into what causes dust storms, why they appear to becoming more frequent and severe in some parts of the world, and what can be done to lessen their impact.
Over two episodes, BBC World News’ flagship technology programme Click surveys the technology which is hoping to solve the air pollution problem. In the first episode the team explore how air pollution detection works and asks why the technology behind it is so hard to miniaturize. They also wade into the debate surrounding whether or not personal air pollution detection devices are a good thing, or take the onus off policy-makers. The second episode analyses how we can improve air quality in cities with the help of a network of high tech sensors and smart urban planning.
