Dear FOI Receiving Officer, I hope this message finds you well. We are currently working on a college thesis and would like to formally request data related to air quality and its impact on human health in the Philippines for the year 2022-2024. Specifically, we are seeking the following: 1. Air Quality Data: Detailed data on air pollution levels (e.g., PM2.5, PM10, nitrogen dioxid, sulfur dioxide, ozone, etc.) for 2022-2024, broken down by region or major cities, if available. 2. Health Impact Data: Information or reports that link air quality levels with public health outcomoes, such as respiratory diseases, cardiovascular issues, and other related conditions. 3. Trends or Studies: Any published studies, research papers, or government reports that explore the relationship between air quality and human health in the Philippines. We would appreciate if the data could be provided in digital format (e.g., spreadsheets, PDFs, or accessible databases) for ease of analysis. Thank you for assistance. We are looking forward to your prompt response. Best regards, Thristan Caalim Our Lady of Fatima University - Quezon City Campus [email protected]
