Hello!

We are looking for people who have noticed - and actually care about - the polluted air we live, and cycle in, in London. We are a group of students who are building a start-up on how to improve London's air quality. Therefore, we would love to talk to some people who have been aware of air pollution and maybe give some valuable insights into this problem situation.

Share your stories, experiences and thoughts with us.

Best,
Olivia

You possibly know this already .. For background levels of pm2.5 and pm 10 you should look at DEFRA's information. Annual report http://uk-air.defra.gov.uk/assets/documents/annualreport/air_pollution_uk_2013_issue_1.pdf.

Also look at WHO and the Aphekom report. The gist of the Aphekom report predicts life expectancy would increase by 13 months in London if the long term pm 2.5 levels where bought down to the WHO (AQG) annual level.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
