Abstract
Thailand’s air pollution crisis, specifically pollution due to particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to 2.5 μm, PM2.5, is exacerbated by structural inequities and an information ecosystem dominated by vested interests within agribusinesses and the government. This paper explores drivers of and solutions to the PM2.5 crisis, drawing
upon often neglected civil society perspectives.
