Air Quality

Air pollution poses a severe global health and environmental threat, making accurate and open air quality data crucial. Yet, many governments do not monitor or share air quality measurements, largely due to a lack of funding and technical expertise.

At Clarity, we’ve heard your feedback: organizations need an easy, impactful way to share real-time air quality data with communities and stakeholders. Whether it’s about protecting public health, raising awareness, or building trust, data-sharing should be simple and effective. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our new and improved OpenMap, our revamped platform designed to turn your air pollution measurement data into actionable air quality awareness and insights — without the need for costly or complex third-party solutions.

Clarity Movement was founded in 2014; this year, 2024, marked ten years of our work empowering communities, governments, and industries to combat air pollution. Founded on the belief that clean air is a fundamental human right, we’ve grown from developing OPC sensor technology to deploying air quality sensors in more than 10,000 unique locations across 85+ countries. This blog reflects on our journey, highlights our milestones and partnerships, and outlines our vision for the future.

TL;DR — Ports and logistics operations are major sources of harmful air pollution that affects air quality and climate health both locally and at the global scales — especially as maritime shipping becomes increasingly prominent globally. By implementing effective air quality monitoring and port emission reduction strategies, we can work to reduce these negative impacts and promote more environmentally friendly global supply chains.
