CDMX is one of the most polluted cities in the world , that is why we must take care of our health and avoid activities that could affect our body. If you are one of the people who does outdoor activities such as cycling or going for a run, you should know the importance of knowing the level of pollution in your city. That is why a group of young people specialized in areas of engineering, programming and design created an app called Plume , with which you can know the level of pollution in each city in real time and even compare it with the rest of the world. The app indicates the level of pollution through scales that indicate the state of the air , from “perfect air” to “the apocalypse.” It is very rare that Mexico is found in the first two stops since there is pure air and moderate pollution, which would allow for outdoor activities. The following scales are more harmful: “ high pollution ” which means that the air is very polluted and is above the recommendations of the World Health Organization, “ very high pollution ” means that anyone can suffer more severe effects in your health, “ excessive pollution ” means that there is a critical level of pollution, “ extreme pollution ” means that it has harmful effects, even in short exposure and finally and the most serious is “ airapocalypse ”, which indicates that the entire population You should avoid any outdoor activity as it could be very high risk to your health. And why should I know the air quality? Simply to take care of your health.
Download this app and discover how much pollution is in the air. Within the application, some icons are shown with recommendations to know how advisable it is to carry out activities outside the home. Pluma , practically a pollution thermometer, built based on the air quality indicator called Air quality Index (AQI) and the international standard developed by the United States Environmental Europe Cell Phone Number List Protection Agency (EPA) Other creations… This App was created by young people of different nationalities in Paris, France and they also developed a personal device that captures polluting particles and together with the app you can know exactly the level of pollution in each place in a city. The device is called Flow and it was presented at the CES technology fair last January in Las Vegas, where it received recognition for innovation. This project is part of the projects with which France aims to be a world reference in innovation and also to open new fields for the country's economic growth. Raymond Wittmann, vice president of the firm, said that 71 thousand square meters of solar panels will be installed at the San Luis Potosí plant.
The German company BMW is preparing the installation of a solar energy plant in San Luis Potosí, which will serve to power 100 percent of the electrical needs in the car factory they are building right here. The vice president declared at a press conference that the panels that will be installed will be part of the total investment of one billion dollars that will be channeled into his new plant in the state. “We are still analyzing suppliers, we do not have the measurement of the total capacity we require,” said the executive. The company began to establish itself in our country at the end of 2016 and has already made progress between 40% and 60%, so it is expected that the first production tests will be carried out in mid-2018 in order to begin activities in April 2019, according to data from El Financiero. He also reaffirmed that this project is part of his innovation plan since the aim is for the Mexican car manufacturer to be the most advanced of the group in terms of technology worldwide. This plant will be the third largest in the world below Libera where they make 300 thousand units and Spartanburg (United States) 250 thousand, since there will be a production of 150 thousand units per year.
