Greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollutants pose a serious threat to public health and to the ecosystems that sustain our lives and economies. ISO standards help reduce pollution and health risks for example by defining measurement methods and providing benchmarks for various environments, including workplaces and other indoor spaces as well as outdoor air.
Cities worldwide are in the race to adapt to a changing climate. Everywhere, soaring temperatures fuelled by human-made greenhouse gas emissions are disrupting the delicate balance of our climate systems.
It’s easy to have mixed feelings about carbon. On the one hand, it’s the foundation for life on Earth. On the other, it’s linked to climate change.
