This presentation will explore contemporary issues of air pollution through the lens provided by history. It will present a perspective drawn from an analysis of historical, and mostly failed, attempts to manage air pollution from classical times until today. It will ask the question why have we not learnt from the lesson history provides? It will do so with the benefit of 2020 hindsight!
