What data is expected?
Aggregate data about the emission of air pollutants especially those potentially harmful to human health (although it is not a requirement to include information on green house gas emissions). Aggregate means national-level or more detailed and on an annual basis or better. Standard examples of relevant pollutants would be: carbon monoxides, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter etc.

Details
No available data from the Environment Management Bureau has a section for managing air quality: http://www.emb.gov.ph/portal/Portals/23/PDF%20Files/DenrAirQualityStatReport10-11.pdf In Philippines there is a Clean Air Act (from 1999). As part of the implementation of this legislation air monitoring stations are being implemented. Regularly National Air Quality Reports are generated. The last one available on the website covers 2010 and 2011 though. It is in PDF format. Data visualizations regarding the different pollutants are contained in the report. No microdata or real time data is available on the website.
