“Air pollution is a huge environmental health issue, killing 10,000 people every year in London alone,” said Romain Lacombe, chief office of the campaign. “Putting air sensors(监测器) on the back of pigeons helps to raise awareness of this problem and helps Londoners understand the impact of pollution in an accessible and immediate way.”
The pigeons used in the study are racing pigeons, which usually live four times longer than street pigeons because they're so well cared for. The pigeons even have their own doctor to check they're always in good health. The high-tech backpacks they wear to monitor pollution are tiny and light as a feather.
The campaign only runs for three days, after which the birds will be able to return to their normal life.
