In Gelsenkirchen, the current fine dust pollution exceeds the limit values and reaches dangerous values. On Saturday, a concentration of 27 µg/m³ was measured at the Kurt-Schumacher-Straße measuring station, which catapults the air quality into the red area. This alarming data has been published by the Federal Environment Agency and show that air has been classified as "bad" in the past four hours. For risky groups, including asthmatics and people with previous illnesses, it is urgently advised to avoid physical activities outdoors, such as gelsenkirchen.de

With the increasing values, the risk of respiratory diseases and other health problems is also increased. Experts recommend affected groups to stay in well-ventilated interiors and to postpone sporting activities to the less stressed morning or evening hours. A conscious handling of the current air quality is therefore essential to take targeted measures for your own security.
