Pistoia's air quality reflects the Pistoia plain at the edge of the Arno valley, with vehicle traffic on the A11 motorway and the surrounding nursery garden and manufacturing industry — Pistoia being Italy's major ornamental plant production centre — contributing distinctive horticultural emissions including pesticides and fertilisers alongside the primary vehicle sources. The Apennine foothills create partial topographic enclosure under calm winter conditions.
