Nowhere in Gelderland does the air quality meet the standards of the World Health Organization (WHO). In the municipalities of Beuningen, Tiel and Westervoort, the air is the worst, according to research by the journalism platform Pointer. In order to keep a close eye on air quality, environmental services in Gelderland will deploy mobile measuring stations in the coming years.
Those who breathe dirty air run an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease, asthma and lung cancer, according to a report published in 2021 by the GGD on Gelderland's air quality. "One in six strokes in the province can be attributed to air pollution. And one in seven children with asthma would not suffer from this if there were no air pollution," the GGD writes in the report.
According to this report, residents in Gelderland die on average 10.5 months earlier than if there were no air pollution.
Disappear
At the neighborhood level, the worst air quality in Gelderland, according to Pointer, can be found in the Verspreide Huizen Hoeven district in Zaltbommel. This is a district south of the city center along the A2 motorway. The districts of De Dreven in Ede and Eimersweide in Arnhem also score poorly. The relatively least unhealthy air can be found in the forests of Vierhouten in the Veluwe.
First measuring station in Lunteren
The Omgevingsdienst Regio Arnhem (ODRA), together with the province of Gelderland, will install mobile measuring stations at sixteen different locations over the next five years to measure air quality. In February, the first mobile measuring station was installed in Lunteren. The Village Council there made a case for the placement of the station.

DJ, Alcohol, smoking tobacco does cause cancer-still most governments get that much money out of tax over these kinds of products they are not very serious in stopping these health risks...

Even worse..if people die before retirement -still at the end of "productive" years it may "save" costs...

Here in NL the average working week may be 32-36 hours per week...a month holliday...However people are supposed to keep working untill 67-70 y/o...A record short working week is mixed with a record high retirement age...

Since life expectency in NL is 80 (male) 83 (female) -with some luck the average retirement time of life may be 10 to 15 years...
