Media storm over EU 'final warning' on NO2 exceedences

Following the European Commission's announcement that they are progressing their legal proceedings against the UK government (and Spain, Italy, France and Germany), Jo was called upon to speak to the BBC on three occasions last week. First up was a live interview at the BBC Bristol studios for the Radio 4 Today programme, where Jo was interviewed alongside Matthew Pencharz (former Deputy Mayor of Environment) by Nick Robinson. The interview can still be caught on iPlayer (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08g96yn#play) at around 2:38 for the next 25 days. That evening, Jo was back to the BBC studios to record a TV interview for the regional evening news programme, Look North, as Hull was one of the areas listed in the 16 zones and agglomerations for which the government are in breach for not preparing action plans. The next day it was a pre-recorded interview via Skype for BBC Click on the use of personal monitors and the government inaction on air quality, which will be going out at Breakfast on 4th March (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08gml61).
