  4. Easy Clean Air for Kids A kid-approved way to avoid toxic air — and keep lungs + brains healthy. The walk to and from school is the most air-toxic time for kids. As much as 60% of the pollution they breathe in is from the school run and playground. Toxic air can harm their lungs, damage the development of their brains and stunt their growth.

They have monitored pollution for themselves, and discovered that walking just one road back from a main road can mean up to 50% less toxic air exposure. Source: cleanairforkids.org.uk
