20th June – Clean Air Day 2019

We can all have a cleaner air day on 20th June. Air pollution affects you from your first breath to your last, as the damage to our health can start when we’re a baby and carry on through into old age. But if we work together we could have a cleaner air day on:

Clean Air Day
20th June 2019

Did you know that if you walk on the side streets, rather than busy roads, you could experience 20% less air pollution? Or that if you walk, rather than drive, you could cut your exposure to air pollution in half (as car drivers can be exposed to twice as much air pollution as pedestrians and nine times more than a cyclist)?

Clean Air Day on 20th June is a chance to find out more about air pollution, learn how to avoid it, and discover the practical things that people can do to cut local pollution.

Want to run a Clean Air Day event this year? Find resources here, and find out more about Clean Air day online here.
