UTTRI associated faculty Professor Jeff Brook believes that the improved air quality we’re experiencing during the pandemic can be part of our post-COVID reality.
With COVID-19 the recognition of public health knowledge has perhaps never been greater.
In a blog post for the National Collaborating Centre for Environmental Health, April 23, 2020, Brook explains that the Canadian Urban Environmental Health Research Consortium (CANUE) involves a wide range of research partners across the country.
The advantage of a one-stop, up-to-date, comprehensive environmental data platform is revealing itself in today’s fight against COVID-19.
Air quality is one of CANUE’s areas of expertise. CANUE’s data on multiple air pollutants and their transportation working group are available to help guide research on impacts and solutions.
We long to enjoy our vibrant community life as soon possible. Let’s all aim to make it even better than before. With the renaissance in the quantity, quality and availability of environmental data, of which CANUE is at the forefront, we have the technology.
