Natural sources such as wildfires, volcanoes, and sandstorms emit air pollutants like particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds, sometimes affecting human health and the climate.
While construction can have a myriad of negative impacts on air quality and the climate, taking action by establishing dense air quality monitoring networks, implementing sustainable construction practices, and supporting increased regulation can help to minimize these effects on surrounding communities.
Our recent webinar highlights the innovative work of our partners that has been used to establish high-resolution air quality monitoring networks and collect, communicate, and forecast air quality information during wildfire season.
Sean Wihera, our VP of Business Development and Partnerships, joins us in conversation about his experience on the Environmental Technologies Trade Advisory Committee (ETTAC) working to advise on the export of environmental technologies.
The COVID-19 pandemic served as a reminder of the air pollution exposure disparities experienced by underresourced communities and the intersections between air quality, health, and environmental justice.
The impacts of air pollution and climate change cannot be contained to one geographical area, making it essential for different levels of government — including local, state, and national agencies — to cooperate to mitigate these environmental crises.
Mining and industrial operations are major sources of air pollution, making it highly important to monitor air quality to protect employees and surrounding communities from exposure.
By considering various low-cost sensor specifications, like sensor accuracy, ease of use, and data analysis capabilities, you can choose the most appropriate technology for your air quality monitoring project.
As an authorized partner, the joint venture of Lighthouse Partners Ltd. & CDG Thailand is now authorized to submit bids, promote, sell, install, commission, and serve Clarity products and services in Thailand, including after-sales services, warranty, and spare part supply as required.

As we continue to break down the US EPA's Enhanced Air Sensor Guidebook, we discuss the importance of collocation to ensure effective, accurate air quality measurement with low-cost sensors.
We break down the US EPA's Enhanced Air Sensor Guidebook's recommendations on siting sensor and installation, with key considerations to make to establish an effective air quality monitoring network.
Technology can be used to move policy, by providing better datasets to mayors. Panelist David Lu, CEO of Clarity Movement, highlighted the power of data.
We now have smart homes and smart cars, so it’s no surprise that our cities are becoming smarter every day. One problem plaguing many big cities is air pollution, and one company is using technology to help remedy the problem.
TenX has invested in Clarity, a three-year-old company that makes air-pollution monitoring devices which provide hyper-localised and real-time air-quality readings in metropolitan areas.
