A game changer - air pollution as a cause of death

Post by duke63 »

This was headline news for a few hours on Wednesday and then disappeared into the ether.

If doctors start seeing air pollution as a life threatening /ending disease then we can be pretty certain local councils will be given powers to ensure that air in their area stays clean enough for normal life to continue.

I agree, however from what i've seen reported the mother lived next to one of the busiest roads in the country and didnt realise it would affect a child with bad asthma? Sorry but thats BS too.

If it helps regulate air quality it is a good thing though.
