Which disaster risk or issue are you addressing?

I live in Tangerang it is a city about 20 KM from the capital City Jakarta. Jakarta for the past few months has been in the Top 10 worst Air quality city in the world and my city Tangerang was on top 1 worst Air Quality in the country.

and as for today when I check the air quality map in Indonesia we have a lot of fire spot in the country this the annual wildfire that keep coming back every year.

The bad air quality also has caused approximately 10.000 in 2023. my family also got the impact as my twin babies has been coughing for a week last month (they are ok right now).

translate: Thousands have died due to air pollution. Air quality makes people worry

one of the problem is the air quality station is not enough to cover the reading of a single city. Even in my city Alone we only have 1 Air Quality Station that cover approximately 150 Km area. This has raise my concern on getting the accurate Air Quality Index reading in my city.
Based on this I want to add few more air quality station/node in few area of my city and I hope with this project I could help to raise awareness to the society and reduce the sickness caused by the air pollution
