Based on the observation that air quality measuring devices have shown increased levels of dust pollution in recent years, we carried out an investigation over two years. This confirmed the assumption of increasing air pollution: a significant increase in the parts per million of dust particles. By analysing the filter contents of an air ionizer, we were able to find various pollutants: Arsenic, aluminum, titanium, fluorides, barium as well as mold spores. The causes can be assumed to be Geoengineering, Solar Radiation Management and Stratospheric Aerosol Injection. Air purification devices are therefore becoming increasingly important.
