Clean Air and Good Health

Today you will breathe 1500 quarts of air. A little bit of air pollution may have a big effect on health. The EPA studied life span in a number of cities as related to the amount of fine dirt particles in the air. Results indicated significantly shortened life spans in cities with dirtier air. Surprisingly, EPA studies also show that home air is often 6 to 10 times more polluted than outdoor city air. Home air is contaminated by organic and inorganic particles and toxic gases. People most at risk from indoor air pollution are newborns, young children, elderly, heart patients and those with bronchitis, asthma, and allergies.
