      Brixton Road breaches annual air pollution limit in five days</a><br>
    <blockquote> <font size="-1">In the UK it is estimated that the air
        pollution that we breathe causes an estimated 40,000 early
        deaths per year.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> Legal limits were set in 1999 to protect our
        health, with a deadline to meet them by 2010. Now, in 2017, they
        have been breached in the first five days of the year.A south
        London road has breached its annual air pollution limit for 2017
        in just five days.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> Readings taken in Brixton Road found levels of
        nitrogen dioxide (NO2), linked to nearly 5,900 early deaths a
        year, repeatedly breached the EU limit.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> King's College London, which runs the air quality
        monitoring stations, said similar pollution problems are found
        along many of London's main roads.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> Oxford Street, Kings Road and the Strand are
        other pollution hotspots.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> Under EU law the average hourly level of NO2,
        mostly caused by diesel vehicles, must not exceed 200 micrograms
        per cubic metre more than 18 times in a year.</font><br>
      <font size="-1"> In the first five days of 2017 Brixton Road had

        toxic smog. It is one of the worst episodes of air pollution the
        country has seen, affecting 460 million people...Cheap coal has
        powered China's economic miracle and still provides 70 per cent
        of the country's energy. The Government is reluctant to wean
        itself off coal, fearing unemployment and unrest...<br>
        In a rare display of anger, China's rising middle class took to
        the Chinese social media website "wechat", demanding the
        Government take action and protect the children of China...<br>
        They said the Government's "war on pollution", now in its third
        year, has not delivered results....— studies suggest more than
        one million people die prematurely every year from the toxic air
        that has engulfed northern China...."The Government should do
        something and not just give us empty promises. Every year it
        gets worse."<br>

      <font size="-1">If climate change is from human activities and we

        die off with new dust bowls. Our supplies of food and fresh
