The low emissions zone changing Barcelona’s air
Barcelona just recorded the cleanest air in modern history, and this short video shows how a bold traffic policy helped make that possible. In 2020, the city rolled out a low-emissions zone almost one and a half times the size of Manhattan, banning the most polluting vehicles on workdays. The video breaks down the results of the policy and what consequences it might have for public health.
To learn more about how this type of climate policy is implemented across hundreds of European cities, watch the video above!
