It’s a beautiful day to walk, cycle or use public transport. It’s down to us to lower our own carbon footprint. #pollution #CleanAirDay

A thought for #Earthday. A powerful route to dealing with the #ClimateCrisis is to tackle #airpollution. Poor #AirQuality is significantly impacting human health RIGHT NOW & very the same pollutants are also warming our planet🌍 nytimes.com/2022/04/19/opi… HT @Daniel_R_Marsh

It's Clean Air Month! Please watch this video about school buses and children's health: ow.ly/GPla50IZg0M Then call or write your elected leaders, tell them we need EV school buses to keep kids healthy! ow.ly/ISC350IZg0K @GCVoters @CEHN @schoolnurses @TheOxygenProj

97% of the UK schools monitored by Airly in the #LetSchoolsBreathe project experienced levels of PM2.5 that exceeded the safe norms set out by the World Health Organization (WHO). Read more: bit.ly/36QxcGG #airpollution #airquality #letschoolsbreathe #repairtheair

This is very worrying, and another very good reason why we need to urgently work together to decrease #AirPollution Let's do it! 💪 buff.ly/330AuSm

New thread of noteworthy environmental health & #AirPollution facts & research. Children travelling by foot/car/bus on main roads were exposed to greater levels of harmful nitrogen dioxide (NO2) than those on lower traffic roads. 1/ @DrTedros @WHO @wef newscientist.com/article/222068…

A great infographic that clearly shows the impact of various modes of transport. Whenever you can, #walk or #cycle, especially for short journeys, or just a few times a week. It really makes a difference! #ActiveTravel #AirPollution #AirQuality

The less #AirPollution and more green space a child is exposed to, the less likely they are to develop attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a sweeping cohort study of nearly 30,000 children born in 2000 and 2001 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Loved this important conversation between @richaanirudh and @SesameWrkshpIND about air pollution's impact on children, and the power of young people in being part of the solution. Clean air is vital for healthy, happy children 🫁 #MeraPlanetMeraGhar

CleanAir Schools has partnered with @UNSWScience and @JoinClarity to monitor air quality both inside and outside the classroom. Understand more about your schools’ environment and find out how we aim to empower students and staff to make a change here: cleanairschools.com.au/become-a-clean…

#AirPollution is a #PublicHealth issue that impacts residents in cities around the world. So what can #LocalGov leaders do address it? @drgaryfuller takes a look at a few ways cities are working to keep people safe via @guardian theguardian.com/environment/20…

Become a clean air school to find out more about the air our children breathe as they work, play and learn! We’re hoping to monitor both inside and outside the classroom to understand more about air quality and empower schools to make a difference! instagram.com/p/CZh4ofaN6Y9/…

Great resources, thanks! @cleanairschools

The air we breathe affects every part of the body, from the lungs to the heart and brain ❤🧠 Unfortunately, being indoors doesn’t protect you from polluted air. We spend approximately 90% of our time indoors. so the indoor environment has a significant impact on our wellbeing.

Excellent explainer from @DrMariaNeira @WHO re: health dangers of air pollution 🫁 , highlighting action that need to be taken to reduce private car🚗 use & encourage more sustainable transport 🚌🚄🚲🚶‍♀️, among other measures. Worth 5 mins of your time 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=8zktuV…

@FedUpWithBadAir @AriaFrescaaaaaa @claremont2031 @UNSW @UNSWScience @nsw_olg @CAirCommunities @AirFairy04 @canberra_air @CleanAirAust @ap4ca @parents4futureG We’re partnering with @JoinClarity to monitor air pollution but hoping to eventually gain @NSWHealth @nsw_olg support to help roll the program wider across the state and potentially nationwide

@cleanairschools @AriaFrescaaaaaa @claremont2031 @UNSW @UNSWScience @nsw_olg @CAirCommunities @AirFairy04 @canberra_air @CleanAirAust @ap4ca @parents4futureG Low-cost ones or government monitors?

We’re so excited to have air quality monitors up and running at Claremont College! This enables real-time access to air quality data for staff, students and their parents to learn more about challenges in their immediate environment and enact real solutions to combat them.
