This #CleanAirDay a stark warning from Royal College of Physicians on the urgent need to tackle air pollution ⤵️
It’s why we need bold policies like ULEZ—which has already made a massive difference.
Air pollution must be recognised as a public health issue.
Our report 'A breath of fresh air' highlights evidence on the increased range of health impacts linked to air pollution.
The government needs to treat #airpollution as a serious & preventable health risk.
