Air Pollution down "83%", ahem?

Spectator#1 · 2007-04-16 21:29:12

Ok, I know this isn't strictly UCD stuff but did anyone else see this 'breaking news'? http://www.rte.ie/news/2007/0416/smoking.html It's only down 83%? Smoking is completely banned in pubs, what the **** else is polluting the air in there? An obsolete ten pound note for the correct answer. Or the one that makes me giggle…

Read about this this morning. One important thing though.

Post-ban, the level of benzene has fallen dramatically, so that the exposure level is now the same inside a pub as when you're walking on a city street.

Basically the old; not really a field but less rocks than most places. It's not really clean but it's got no more crap than everywhere else.
