Researches from a Palo Alt-based startup named Airly have collected data of the most air-polluted European countries during the summer moths and Malta has made a regrettable appearance.
The research collected sensor data on both particular matter (PM) and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) air pollution in European Holiday cities, with the Canaries in Spain topping the least with a whopping 30.6 on the CAQI-PM scale and Malta coming in second with a score of 30.2.
The least polluted coastal region in Europe was revealed to be Eastern Scotland with a score of 7.22, with the higher the number, the worse the air quality.
Airly claimed to use sensors to provide an accurate listing for governments, media and businesses to use and tackle the issue of air pollution ‘head on’.
