Thought provoking talk from Anjali from Choked Up & introducing a dilemma I hadn't considered before. "As a young woman I shouldn't have to weigh up the risk between walking alone down a side street and damaging my health breathing dirty air" 👏 - Thank you

The letter urged him to commit to meeting World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines and to meaningfully engage with local communities
