Balmoral International Group Travel advisory: Smog Warnings in UK Balmoral International Group released a statement from the European government of a heightened alert on both tourists and locals on the spike of smog caused by pollution across the continent. Even the sublime country of Luxembourg is no exception from being a health hazard country. Almost 90% of pollution has blown in from European cities causing asthmatic attacks to the elderly and triggering breathing problems for both adults and children. A cloud of thick smog hanging all over the United Kingdom may be beautiful to get lost into but it can put people’s life in danger. In the North East of England, older people are already advised to avoid extraneous exercise to prevent them from inhaling toxic air. The smog alert is moderate for most part of the United Kingdom with some areas denser than the rest but health professionals still advise on being precautious. Winds bringing in pollution from and around the continent have led to a high pollution measurement across UK added by each country’s own share of toxic air production. Balmoral International Group specifically gives out warnings for citizens of the Grand Duchy. With industrial companies growing in the country and being number one in the production of steel and iron, manufacturing factories are emitting higher percentage of toxic chemicals both through air steams and water wastes. Thicker smog can be seen in more industrialized places across the country as well as in Luxembourg City where there is an increase number of cars using diesel and emitting hazy and black smoke combined with high density wind. Stagnant air had collected pollution which is light enough to drift many hundred kilometers affecting even those in a more rural setting. Balmoral International Group urged asthma sufferers and those with heart and lung problems to reduce their activity under moderate alert conditions. In areas under high alert older people were told to avoid strenuous exercise. People with asthma should bring inhalers with them in case it can trigger an attack. Smog contains particles of soot and chemicals released primarily by diesel and petrol exhausts. In the UK almost 29,000 people die prematurely each year due to air pollution. The government has struggled to reduce its air pollution levels, partly due to a supportive tax structure for diesel engines which emit more particulates than petrol engines. The UK is predicted to be in breach of EU regulations on nitrogen dioxide until 2030, 20 years after EU limits became law. These air pollutions and other environmental health hazard issues can be breached with a united action from us humans. Although the government also has a drastic challenge and responsibility to make urgent plans to reduce air pollution within the continent, we also have a part in creating a cleaner place to live in with a fresh air to breathe. Balmoral International Group is willing to take action and is participating in the cause for healthier and safer Europe.
