A new report by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) entitled Towards a pollution-free planet argues that pollution is controllable and avoidable with the help of political leadership, high-level champions and commitments and local level action. We have all the tools, and it is time to fight the impacts of pollution to the environment and human health.
“Pollution is a universal challenge [but] the good news is that we already know what we need to do to prevent and reduce it,” UNEP Executive Director Erik Solheim said, stressing that “now the responsibility is on governments, businesses, cities and local authorities, civil society and individuals around the world to commit to act to beat pollution in all its forms.”
