When cities invest in cleaner air, they invest in brighter futures for kids. A landmark study from @ColumbiaMSPH that followed more than 1,000 mother-child pairs in New York City found that as air pollution declined, young children’s cognitive development scores improved — adding to the evidence that clean air policies can help protect developing brains.
