so i've come to taipei's institute of information science to find out how they're tackling air pollutionthe founding researchers behind airbox. the idea is pretty simple — help people better understand and tackle the pollution around them by teaching them to make their own diy, low—cost air sensors. since launching in 2015, they've built a network of thousands of community—run air—quality sensors across the island. initially, when people started to use the local sensors to sense their environment, they found a lot of interesting findings which are never reported by the governments. so, initially, the government doesn't like the results. but finally, theyjust realised, well, this is the real environment people are living in. today, there are over 4,000 of their pollution sensors around taiwan, including one in every primary and secondary school. some schools may change the schedule, so if the air pollution is more severe, then they will cancel the outdoor activities. research like this has revealed that there are a few major sources of pollution in taiwan. the usual suspects like industry
