I remember @rcrohit7.bsky.social and I recommending this back in our 2020 indoor emissions study (doi.org/10.3390/atmo...). Feels like a lifetime ago, but great to see some action on the issue #cleanairnight #woodburning #airquality #airpollution

Had the pleasure to talk about Burn Alert project that started during my PhD and now being adopted as a trial study in Swansea. Hope to see reduced #airpollution due to this!
