| 22 | Typically, permanent air pollution monitors are placed at the height of an average male, in order to record the quality of the air they breathe. | ||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | As well as excluding females who are on average shorter than males, there is a large difference between the recorded air quality heights and the quality of air breathed by children, and wheelchair users. There is a serious need to address this disparity because presently our knowledge of air pollution and health impacts is limited to the air breathed by adult men who are not in wheelchairs. | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | This indicator therefore attempts to remedy this injustice by measuring air quality at differing heights. | ||
