SUMMARY:[Webinar]: Analyzing the behavior of air pollutants during the Covid-19 global lockdown
DESCRIPTION:\nWith millions of people sheltering in place as a result of the Covid-19 outbreak, cities across the world are seeing dramatic changes in the behavior of air pollutants resulting from sharp drops in regional traffic, commerce and industrial activity.\nData compiled by air quality monitoring stations in Latin American cities have shown major improvements in air quality over the past weeks and in the same period one year ago. Although this might not be the general outlook for all cities, the current situation offers a momentary view into what happens to the air we breathe when emissions are reduced in a radical and sudden way.  This webinar will open a space to share the latest data on air pollution by various air quality monitoring stations, and to discuss the behavior of air pollutants in Latin America during the lockdown.\nThursday April 16, 2020  I 2:00 pm DC time\n\n\n\n\nJoin webinar\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpening Remarks\nJuan Cruz Monticelli; Section Chief, Department of Sustainable Development, OAS\n\n\n\n\nGeneral Panorama Air Pollutants\n\nJorge Koelliker, Scientific Coordinator, Gas Metrology Group, CENAM, Mexico\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat can be interpreted from the current levels of Air Pollution? \n\nMedellin, Colombia: Tiberio Benavidez.
