Experiences After 5 Years of AiREAS and 1 Year of ILM

Abstract

With the ILM available to make visible the invisible we have been able to look into the patterns of air pollution in our city at the level. We could build up cases and relate our exposure to pollutants to our own behavior and responsibilities. But our purpose driven and multidisciplinary interaction around the core values of health and air quality revealed many more, previously invisible issues to our awareness. When something becomes visible it starts forming part of our reality and hence also of our choices. The next phases of AiREAS and other sustainocratic initiatives will determine what we do with our new insights on building a society and real economy around our real core values. This first phase is not an end but the beginning of a whole new era.
