We would have preferred here to talk to you about this Moldavian group author of the hit of the summer of 2003, but on the contrary we will evoke the polluting gas.
Indeed, AirParif announces an episode of ozone pollution this Friday, with degraded air quality in most of Ile-de-France, and a probable exceeding of the threshold set at 180 μg/m³.
The current heat wave has something to do with it since “the strong sunshine and the rise in temperatures favor the increase in ozone levels”, indicates the air quality observatory.
[#EpisodePollution] 🗓 Forecast for 17.06.
Significant sunshine and rising temperatures will further increase ozone levels.
Air quality will be degraded to poor in Ile-de-France.

As a result, the police headquarters has "put in place the information and recommendation system", she said in a press release.
And this mainly concerns road traffic, by postponing, if possible, travel in internal combustion vehicles, by favoring less polluting modes of transport (metro, tram, bicycle, matche, etc.).
The prefecture also gives instructions, without knowing if this is compulsory, to “reduce the speed of vehicles throughout the Île-de-France region”, of the order of 20 km / h.
Finally, excluding road transport, it recommends “avoiding the use of solvent-based products (acetone, varnish, glue, paint, etc.).
As a reminder, ozone can cause eye irritation, coughing and lung problems, especially in children and people with asthma.
So be careful.
