Today is #CleanAirDay 🌱

There are many ways you can reduce air pollution, and remembering to turn your engine off when your vehicle is stationary is one of them 🅿️

Idling your engine wastes both fuel and money, in addition to emitting unnecessary air pollutants 💨

[Clean Air Campaign @cleanairdayuk]

Air pollution is the largest environmental health risk we face today, according to @WHO.

When we breathe polluted air, it can inflame the lining of our lungs and get into our bloodstream ending up in the heart and brain, causing lung disease, heart disease, dementia and strokes.

Thank you to @idlingaction for our amazing banner, showcasing posters created by Year 5 pupils as part of their Anti-Idling Workshop. It is now taking pride of place outside the school!

Some great posters from students at Hayes Primary !

[The Hayes Primary @TheHayesPrimary]

Proud of the banner to show the negative effect idling can have. Young people have greater exposure to harmful pollutants as they take twice as many breaths per minute, compared to adults. Read the banner for travel ideas and please switch off your engine! @idlingaction

[Idling Action London @idlingaction]

Some great work by students at @hambroughps, who learn about air pollution at our school workshop + took action to clean the air by asking idling drivers to switch off! Thanks to @EalingCouncil for the lovely video.

[Ealing Council @EalingCouncil]

Idling for just one minute creates 150 balloons of toxic pollution. We all want to protect our children’s health. Let’s all make a pledge to stop idling and turn off our engines. 🙏 Read more: https://t.co/giqpsZoBnA #NoIdling #EnginesOffEveryStop

Have you noticed our new banner outside of school? Thank you to @idlingaction for organising this for us and to the children who created such meaningful and creative posters for it. #noidling @Bambos_MP @EnfieldCouncil @UNICEF_uk #rightsrespectingschool

[Idling Action London @idlingaction]

Pollution levels are still high today, so let's all do our bit to help by avoiding leaving vehicle engines running when not needed. Choose walking, cycling or scooting instead!

[Idling Action London @idlingaction]

With higher levels of air pollution expected across London for the next few days, please remember to switch off your vehicle engines whenever possible. Even better walk, cycle or scoot instead!

[Idling Action London @idlingaction]

🚗@idlingaction visited
Lionel Primary School in Brentford yesterday to teach children about the dangers of harmful fumes!

🌎Following the workshop, students approached those idling to educate them on the benefits of switching off their engines.

🌟Well done!
