Bury, Bolton, and other parts of Greater Manchester are under a "moderate" air pollution alert due to increased ozone pollution, prompting Clean Air Greater Manchester to advise vulnerable individuals with lung or heart problems to limit outdoor activities. The alert affects all 10 boroughs, with authorities suggesting adults and children with lung issues, and adults with heart problems, reduce strenuous physical activity, especially outdoors. High-up ozone protects against UVC rays but increased urban ozone levels can be linked to human-made chemicals.
