Torino, Varese, Rome: these Italian cities were covered by the research published on Lancet Oncology, recording some of the worst pollution levels in Europe. The fine dust suspended in the air exceed the parameters established by the European Community, according to which the particulate must remain below 40 micrograms per cubic metre for Pm 10 and below 20 micrograms for Pm 25. The figures are worrying: there is a very close relationship between the concentration of pollutants in the air and the risk to suffer from lung cancer. Unfortunately, this is confirmed by the new cases recorded in Italy since 2010. The fine dust we breathe every day when going for a walk on the streets of our cities and which seeps into our homes is an enemy we must fight. As soon as possible. Therefore, clean air is urgently needed, at least in the home. By implementing solutions that allow the fine dust to be filtered and withheld, without recirculating it in one’s living space.
