Air Quality

Including participation in the scientific studies that provided robust before and after measurements, TU Dublin researchers have been engaged with the city’s and country’s air quality issues from the days when public health concerns arose due to the domestic burning of coal and indoor cigarette smoke. TU Dublin research continues to contribute by being involved locally, nationally, and internationally in studies and collaborations that aim to maintain and improve public health in this fundamental area. For example see Air Quality & Grangegorman.

Under the Public Sector Mandate for Climate Action TU Dublin has a responsibility to develop a Sustainable Mobility Plan to reduce scope 3 carbon emissions, which constitute a substantial portion of TU Dublin’s carbon footprint. Any such plan requires that we take a University-wide approach to our transport and mobility supporting actions.
