AQI website

Pasay [223] Very Unhealthy
North Caloocan [153] Unhealthy

all others seem to have good winds hence moderate and good

Paranaque [28] Good

anyways its sucks that DENR-EMB cannot maintain the supposed 17 monitoring areas "online", only 5 is available it seems. link

I wonder if matters have improved since the Ateneo pollution study last year?

midweek 630am results are ok.

but they should've measured monday or friday at 6pm

the results would be much worse i would reckon. with slow traffic the TSP would increase significantly

do they have figures taken from residential neighborhoods?

Most if not all monitoring points are located along major thoroughfare only

True.

On a related note, I wonder if our car filters filter out some of the soot/smog in Metro Manila's air.

Makes me wish I have the moolah to buy the Model X 👍

The website shows only particulate matter measurements (PM10 and PM2.5).
I wonder how much NOx Metro Manila has.

Si gina lopez medyo beholden and may hypocrisy din yan. Remember her family owns the damaging pipeline w/c leaked in makati. Even the toxic waste the old rockwell power plant produced is supposedly buried and entombed underneath a parking area in nearby pasig as reported by the pcij

I hope she follows through w/ her advocacy this time around

to be or not to be, that always confuses me!
