The EU has updated its air quality standards by merging two directives into one and aligning the limits on harmful pollutants with those recommended by the World Health Organization. The revised Ambient Air Quality Directive, adopted on October 14 by the European Council, imposes stricter limits on pollutants in the air. This move aims to improve air quality in Europe and protect public health from the negative impacts of air pollution. By setting more stringent standards, the EU is taking steps towards reducing air pollution and promoting a healthier environment for its citizens.
