Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah – Air quality and the EV transition | The Stop Burning Stuff Podcast
Join us on a powerful journey with Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, World Health Organisation BreatheLife Ambassador, and founder of the Foundation named after her late daughter, Ella Roberta. In this episode, we delve into the heartbreaking yet inspiring story of Ella’s tragic death due to pollution-related respiratory failure, which sparked Rosamund’s relentless campaign against air pollution.
In conversation with Quentin, Rosamund talks about the shocking statistics on respiratory diseases, particularly in children, and the important role EVs and other clean technologies can play in improving air quality. They also discuss how misinformation is slowing the much-needed transition to cleaner transport and home heating, and the need for greater political support for air improvement initiatives to improve public health and help everyone #StopBurningStuff
