The price of inaction by governments around the world is mountainous resulting in unnecessary human suffering, untimely deaths, and irreparable damage to our planet due to air pollution. Will governments dump the so-called 'development model', which not only plunders our air and natural resources but also is resulting in humanitarian crises for majority of our population? Will governments reject false solutions promoted by extractive and fossil-fuel industries, hold these abusive corporations to account, and go for real people-centric solutions to save our health and our planet?
