Air Pollution is not only dangerous to the environment and climate, but also to human health.
​
As 90% of the human population is exposed to toxic outdoor air, the World Health Organisation has classified air pollution as a 'public health emergency'.
​
Research reveals that air pollution may affect every cell and organ in the human body. It has been linked to numerous types of cancer, heart attack, stroke, reduced intelligence, dementia and many other medical conditions. Pollutants have even been found in placentas - the organ that nourishes fetuses. This means that babies are affected by air pollution before they are even born.
