If the EU is so advanced why do any cities have pollution problems at all?? What is the pollution like in Germany if it is causing alarms to go off in the UK?? (after being diluted as it makes the long journey)
Ummmm... Germany is not to the Southwest of you. How does pollution from the East move upwind?
Maybe, just maybe, YOU are the source of the air pollution in England. I know that it's a tough one to swallow, especially with all of those foreigners across the Channel from you, but ...
The Guardian is reporting that '90% of the smog is coming from Europe' - it does not specifically name Germany as the source.
“A large majority of what we are seeing at the moment is the imported pollution from traffic and industrial sources on the continent,” he said.
The cloud of smog has sat over much of Europe for the past two days. Cities in France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Poland and Lithuania we affected. A high pressure system caused light winds across the continent. Stagnant air collects pollution, some of which is light enough to drift many hundreds of kilometres.
In the UK smog levels peaked on Tuesday. A light southerly breeze pushed the cloud across England, Wales and Scotland on Tuesday. A change began arriving on Thursday morning with strong north-easterly conditions expected on Friday to clear the smog away."

Nobody else is responsible for polluted air coming from Germany other than the Germans.
Although it could have been far worse, I suppose - there's been an awful lot worse that has come our way from Germany in the near past.
I know. Thankfully, they seem to gave quietened down now. It must be movie time at the asylum.
