    The full report is Haringey Clean Air Group People’s Assembly Report.

    Key suggestions from participants were:

    – support should be given first to those areas in most social need
    – Haringey Council should be a driver and exemplar of change through
    – raising public awareness eg through schools and social media to create a shared vision
    – further People’s Assemblies and neighbourhood meetings on eg the Edmonton Incinerator
    – support for a transition away from fossil fuels and reduced car use
    – an electric transition for private, public and commercial vehicles
    – incentives for local businesses to go green
    – enforcement of anti-pollution laws
    – monitoring of air quality and live data alerts to residents and workers
    -TfL and Mayor of London have major roles in planning and coordinating for the whole area eg cycle routes, low traffic neighbourhoods, expansion of the ULEZ, subsided public transport.
