Much of Sydney was blanketed in smoke early on Thursday morning with poor or very poor air quality in suburbs including Alexandria, Earlwood, Lidcombe, Randwick, Rozelle, Prospect, Rouse Hill, Bringelly and Oakdale. The city was ranked third-worst in the world for air quality at the time by IQAir, a live map monitoring global air pollution.<\/p>\n<p>The smoke from hazard-reduction burn sites generally improves mid-morning, according to the NSW Planning and Environment website. And some Sydney Marathon runners competing this weekend have health concerns, with NSW anticipating temperatures 10-14C above average. The RFS has postponed burns for 48 hours to help accumulated smoke settle through the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The RFS said it would continue hazard-reduction burns in the months leading up to bushfire season and smoke would continue to be trapped in the Sydney basin. Asthma sufferers have been warned to take precautions.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/australia-news\/2023\/sep\/14\/sydney-air-quality-smoke-haze-today-back-burning-schedule-hazard-reduction-burns\">Guardian<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/6-390\/\">Sydney smoke: air quality among worst in world due to hazard-reduction burns<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[5721,575,3993],"class_list":["post-116868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-air-quality","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-sydney"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116868"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116868\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
