I’ve read a few news articles in the last decade that engage with some aspect of air pollution in Australia. There was the big to-do of “thunderstorm asthma” several years ago. Canberra’s wood heater buyback. Discussion of periodically bad air quality in Tasmania due to wood fires (both chip heaters and split logs). (I’ve also experienced this and while you sort-of get used to it, there’s no denying it’s harsh on the nose/throat - and presumably thus upon compromised lungs.)
