Levels of air pollution in some of Cardiff's neighbourhoods have been labelled a "huge concern" by the local authority's cabinet member for climate change.
The newly-created cabinet role of climate change was recently taken on by the former cabinet member for transport and strategic planning at Cardiff Council, councillor Caro Wild.
Bringing in the new cabinet role at the council was in large part influenced by the declaration of a climate emergency by the local authority in 2019 and the need for it to reach its net zero target by the year 2030. Recycling, energy and waste are all some of the key areas that the new portfolio will encompass.
