Indicator 11.6.2 (a)

Indicator 11.6.2 (a)

Annual mean levels of fine particulate matter (population-weighted), All area, micrograms per cubic meter

The mean annual concentration of fine suspended particles of less than 2.5 microns in diameters (PM2.5) is a common measure of air pollution. The mean is a population-weighted average for urban population in a country, and is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter.

INDICATOR 11.6.2 (a)
Annual mean levels of fine particulate matter (population-weighted), All area. The mean annual concentration of fine suspended particles of less than 2.5 microns in diameters (PM2.5) is a common measure of air pollution. The mean is a population-weighted average for urban population in a country, and is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter.
TARGET 11.6
By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management.
GOAL 11
Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable

INDICATOR 11.6.2 (a)
Annual mean levels of fine particulate matter (population-weighted), All area. The mean annual concentration of fine suspended particles of less than 2.5 microns in diameters (PM2.5) is a common measure of air pollution. The mean is a population-weighted average for urban population in a country, and is expressed in micrograms per cubic meter.
TARGET 11.6
By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management.
GOAL 11
Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable
