#Airpollution dangers&solutions told by our children. On @cleanairdayuk let’s listen to them & take action to make #cleanair for all to reduce @asthmalunguk Thanks to @BCPCouncil & @Sustrans & @DefraGovUK for the opportunity to create this. @HealthyDorset youtu.be/1ToSoh6ez7g

On this, #cleanairday, please share this animation to make school communities consider how they can make all schools ‘Clean air schools’ (with thanks to @Bournemouthuni for the animation) @Sustrans @BCPCouncil #AirPollution @MumsForLungs ⁦@asthmalunguk⁩

This #CleanAirDay local #BCPCouncil schools have been distributing these ‘idling impact’ leaflets to their communities. Even if you have to drive, you can improve air quality by switching off when stopped. More clean air schools resources bit.ly/3wxctRF #Sustrans

Delighted to hear from another school who are making use of their banner.. each morning different children stand with a member of staff to remind people to keep their air clean :-) Don’t forget there’s lots of other resources to use in the toolkit - bit.ly/3wxctRF

Want to make every day a #cleanairdayuk outside your school? Thanks to funding from @DefraGovUK there’s a toolkit to help. bit.ly/3wxctRF @LikeEngineer @psimonk @ @mumsforlungs @SustransSouth

Why are these people not being protected from the obvious health hazard of hundreds of idling engines in a confined space. When will we start to take the dangers of dirty air seriously ? Write to your MPs! @airqualitynews @DefraUKAir @HealthyAirUK @EllaRobertaFdn

Proud to be working @SustransSouth & @BCPCouncil raising awareness of air quality & the impact of idling. @Canford_Junior did themselves proud today with over 80% actively travelling to school and enjoying the smoothie bike in action. Thanks @EmmaCocksedge @cleanairdayuk

Fantastic day celebrating ‘Clean Air’ @Canford_Junior. Alongside @MensShed year 4 & eco club made this art installation, reminding us that even when we have to drive, we can keep our air cleaner, (and so healthier to breathe) by not idling. For @EllaRobertaFdn @cleanairdayuk :-)

Feel @Bournemouthecho need to reconsider their application of the new suggested media guidelines for reporting road traffic collisions. Unless of course, they consider this poor man to be ‘an object or obstacle’ :-( What happened to ‘acknowledging the drivers role?’

Public awareness on the extent of the health impacts of air pollution must be raised. We must be brave and tell the truth, as a legacy to @EllaRobertaFdn. Our own government’s website states ‘poor air quality is the biggest environmental risk to public health’.
