Greenpeace has just released a report on the extent of the global air pollution crisis, analysed using groundbreaking satellite data from 1 June to 31 August this year mapping the world’s Nitrous Oxide (NO2) air pollution hotspots across six continents in the most detail to date.
The world’s largest NO2 air pollution hotspot is Mpumalanga province in South Africa – with it’s cluster of 12 coal-fired power stations owned and operated by #Eskom – and with a capacity of more than 32 Gigawatts. South Africa therefore has the most polluting cluster of coal-fired power stations in the world!
