The Stations Measuring the Earth Surface – Atmosphere Relations (SMEAR) - Concept for green cities " was introduced at a one-day conference on “Modern metropolis: the formation of a green economy" on 12.Dec.2018 in Moscow. The conference was aimed to find new effective solutions for the transition to a "green economy" improving well-being and reduce environmental risks in cities. The GlobalSMEAR air quality concept could provide a state-of-the-art air quality monitoring solution for megacities like Moscow. GlobalSMEAR Initiative is currently supported by the ClimateKIC and the SMEAR concept upscaling planning is going on. Dated 14.Dec.2018 |
