Balanced News: Donated air purifiers hoped to help asthmatics deal with Bromley’s ‘putrid smell’

Bromley School in Christchurch, New Zealand, has received 40 air purifiers from the Asthma and Respiratory Foundation NZ to help students with asthma cope with the ongoing “putrid smell” in the area caused by the city council-owned compost and wastewater treatment plants. The air purifiers aim to alleviate respiratory symptoms and improve air quality for the affected students and their families. The school has a significant number of students with asthma, and the air quality issues have resulted in absences and health problems. The donations are seen as a response to inadequate actions by local authorities.
