As we move past the Winter Solstice of 2025, it never fails to amaze how our ancestors measured the passing of time thousands of years ago.
Before what we now consider science had even been conceived, people had built a structure perfectly aligned with the movement of the sun, incredible.

This week marked Clean Air Week 2025 in Ireland.
Over the past few years more and more studies have been published highlighting the links between poor air quality and lung related illnesses.
In addition, it is believed that exposure to poor air increases the risk of cardiovascular problems.🧵1/6
