Pollution Policy & Cultural Heritage: Air pollution policy promotes cultural heritage preservation

A complex matrix of research efforts is being supported by the European Commission and other international players to investigate the effects of pollution on Europe’s diverse stock of cultural artefacts and structures. But how can this vast amount of data be tied together, much of it based on highly localised conditions? More important, how can it be fed into national and EU policy-making to achieve better air quality control regulations? The Commission-funded project, CULT-STRAT, aims to find the answers.
