Key message
Neutral

The emission of primary particles, smaller than 10 µm (PM10), particles smaller than 2.5 µm (PM2.5) and all total suspended particles (TSP) have decreased in the period 2000 – 2019 in Slovenia by 25 %, 25 % and 26 %. The main source of emissions of particulate matter are households, mainly due to use of biomass for domestic heating.
