“So, a few years ago, when we started talking about air pollution, we discovered that people woke up in the morning and they thought that they saw fog. It’s a morning fog. It’s a nice day. It’s clean. And, and we were saying, hey, guys, this is air pollution. This is not fog. So, it actually this (writing on my t-shirt) means ‘that’s not fog’. And it’s kind of become the rallying cry for us, to remind people that every time they see a grey sky, every time they can’t see the clouds, it’s not because it’s about the rain. It’s because the air pollution is unfortunately that high.”

“Indonesia has the worst air pollution in Southeast Asia. There are other countries like Thailand. In Thailand, it’s a seasonal problem. January, February, March. They do stubble burning. In Indonesia, cities like Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Yogyakarta. Many of the largest places, it happens every single year. And, one of our hopes is that, the incoming administration takes this as an opportunity to, fix some of the regulations. That should have been happening over the last 5 to 10 years. And, and create an environment for, for everybody."
13. Various of street shots, women wearing masks walking on the sidewalk and crossing a zebra crossing
14. SOUNDBITE (English) Piotr Jakubowski, Air Pollution expert, Co-founder Nafas:
“The visit of the Pope is great because it provides a sounding board from another very well-respected world leader. You know, Indonesia is 98% Muslim, but, you know, the visit of the pope is something that is really a big event in Jakarta, and for the country. So, having his voice on things like the environment is really great to see. And hopefully he can inspire more and more people to take more care in the environment."
