    From the article:

    In Sweden, by contrast, there is no area where PM2.5 reaches more than twice the WHO figure, and some areas in northern Scotland are among the few across Europe that fall below it.

    In the map they provide Norway is almost entirely below the WHO safe air recommendation.

      Sadly, the few exceptions are the areas where most of the population lives. Same as with Finland, Sweden and Island.

      Don’t get me wrong: They are still better off than most. But this map is mostly just a representation of population density. These educational maps often are.
