People should just use air filters, IKEA sells a cheap one that works well, and stop cooking on gas. Not much else the average citizen can do except voting for parties with a green agenda.
Do not use wood fires and coal bbqs and avoid cars.
That only works if everyone does it ... I don't use wood fires or coal BBQs and don't own a car, but all my neighbors do :(
They only work with the windows closed, unfortunately ... which, depending where you live, means you'd also need AC, which might spike up your electricity bill, etc ...
And just stay inside the whole day? I mean I do work from home so it could mostly work for me but this is not reasonable overall.
Most people spend a large portion of time at their homes. It makes sense to improve your indoor air quality regardless of how much time you spent out.
