- What type of organization best describes you? We are an Italian no profit organization, called Bene Comune Cernusco, which main goal is the protection and valorization of “Commons”. We are a environmental no profit organization
- Describe your organization. We deal with defence of Commons, which are: air, soil, water, quality of life, biodiversity, healthy environment. We are a small group of people (about 25) living in the area of Milan (Italy), absolutely volunteers, spending part of their free time in studying the laws related to environment and acting consequently in order to start actions for enquiring political decision makers and protecting the environment with practical effects.
- Describe your project. We built ourselves some pollution measuring instruments, which are regularly posting their data online (www.benecomunecernusco.it/WordPress/pagina-sensori). They are few for the moment, but since Nord of Italy and the Milan area is one of the most polluted area in Europe, at least for air quality, we would like to increase our measuring network with some additional instruments, entering a worldwide network and improving the collected data. We will give the new instruments to our members to increase knowledge and involvement and of course improve collected data on air quality.
- Which PurpleAir model(s) are you interested in and how many would you want for your project? We are thinking to about 10 instruments of type Purple air Classic plus
