Lebanon is a beautiful country, located at the crossroads of the Mediterranean Basin and the Arabian hinterland. Air Quality information used to be available publically and freely, once a day from the Environmental Resources Monitoring in Lebanon project (ERML). Unfortunately, there's currently no more active air quality monitoring project.

Les informations sur la qualité de l'air étaient auparavant accessibles publiquewent et gratuitement, une fois par jour sur le site erml.moe.gov.lb. Malheureusement, il n'y a actuellement plus aucun projet actif de surveillance de la qualitée de l'air.
