Summary
The Northern Territory is cracking down on industrial air pollution with new legislation set to empower the EPA to monitor dangerous carcinogens like benzene—after a major gas company grossly underestimated its emissions. While current rules only track common pollutants, the upgrade will force businesses to report on toxic chemicals previously left unregulated. Community groups are already stepping up with their own air monitors, turning citizen science into a vital watchdog as industry expands and health concerns grow.
