The AQMRC out in force at RTCA 2

The AQMRC were out in force at the Routes to Clean Air Conference, held in The Grand Hotel Bristol on the 11th and 12th of October, with Jim, Tim, Jo, Ben and Emily in attendance.
 
Contributions were given from Jim Longhurst and Tim Chatterton on the first day. Jim discussed what has been achieved since the Clean Air Act of 1956, and Tim spoke on air pollution, exposure inequality and future research through the Clair-City project. Jim also chaired a number of sessions over both days. Other talks focused on health impacts, emissions monitoring and modelling and local solutions to the air pollution crisis.
 
The conference was considered a great success and we look forward to Routes to Clean Air 3 next year!
