Our Why
Pollution in the UK is not just an environmental issue. It’s a social justice issue. Polluted air, unsafe water, and contaminated soil deepen health inequalities, food insecurity, and social exclusion. Yet, much environmental research remains top-down and detached from the people living with its consequences.
We flip the script. At Pollution Justice UK, data collection, analysis, and solutions are driven by communities themselves.
Our Vision
A just, data-driven environmental movement that empowers communities to monitor, understand, and challenge pollution in their environments.
Our Mission
To map pollution and mobilise people through citizen science, community partnerships, and collaborative research that informs policy and action.
Why Us?
Unlike existing initiatives, we:
Connect the dots between data, storytelling, and policy action.
Centre communities, not institutions.
Offer accessible, affordable tools for monitoring pollution.
Provide ongoing guidance and training to ensure long-term engagement.
