“Burning wood doesn’t just pollute your home—it also pollutes your local community and harms the health of your neighbours.”
This is one of several messages behind the fourth Clean Air Night in the UK.
The annual event, which is organized by Global Action Plan, has now moved to autumn from January, to better align with the beginning of the wood heating season. It takes place on 17 November.
Clean Air Night is envisioned as a time to “shine a light on the uncomfortable truth about wood burning,” with a diverse group of individuals, organizations, and government entities sharing information about how wood burning harms health.
Once again, we are official supporters of Clean Air Night, along with a growing list of other organizations, councils, NHS trusts, medical societies, and others.
