    Indicator: Air quality in agglomerations

    A graph for three air pollutants shows the extent to which the WHO recommendations from 2021 will be exceeded on average in urban areas between 2000 and 2024. The development of the various pollutants varies. Between 2000 and 2024, values for NO2 are between 172 and 28 percent, for ozone between 44 and 28 percent and for PM2.5 between 255 and 61 percent

    Indicator: Population exposure to traffic noise

    A graph shows the proportion of people exposed to traffic noise above 55 decibels during the day and above 50 decibels at night, as observed in the 2022 noise mappings. It differentiates between road, aircraft and rail traffic noise.

    … to avoid adverse consequences on health. According to the lowest available values used in noise mapping for measuring noise pollution, the values 55 dB(A) during the day and 50 dB(A) at night were used as threshold values for the indicator. Assessing the development Around major …
