Technology has given us the gift of numerous luxuries to make our lives simpler. Year on year this advanced technology introduces us to mind-blowing innovations and creations that help us improve our daily lives in several ways. The internet, GPS, smartphones, self-driving cars, among the many technology creations have shown us the possibility to achieve more. While this technology has showered us with an abundance of comfort, this has come at a cost.
One of the biggest challenges today we are facing is the decreasing air quality and its harmful effects on not just human life but the planet as well. Transportation, industries, offices, housing among others are various sources of degrading air quality. According to recent data from the World Health Organization WHO, every year over 7million premature deaths are caused due to the air quality effects.
The notoriously famous COVID-19 has surely taught us the value and importance of being able to breathe and too in the fresh air. As we speak of COVID-19, according to scientists and doctors the world can expect much worse diseases in the coming years which can be airborne and hazardous. Masks, sanitizers, social distancing are going to be there for a long time but only these won’t be enough. The best solution to make this world a better place for the coming generations is to improve the air quality and the IoT Internet of Things looks like a promising option.
