How do you feel about the number of cars around your school gates?

It's not just a safety worry if there are lots of them about when you're trying to get to school or go home.

Vehicles are one of the biggest problems when it comes to air pollution.

So should they be banned altogether? Take part in our vote and leave us a comment below.

Amongst other pollution, exhaust waste from cars is a problem because the fumes can get into the air we breathe.

Some pupils are so concerned, they're coming up with ways of trying to stop this happening outside school.

Children at one primary in Greater Manchester are now patrolling the street outside their school and giving out fake parking tickets to anyone who stops on yellow lines or with their engine on.

The kids are called "junior PCSOs" (a PCSO is a police community support officer).

They started their campaign after the headteacher noticed the number of children with asthma had gone up - he thinks it could be because of air pollution.

The headmaster said "It's great because it's made our children realise that if you do direct action like they are taking themselves with something that is effective as this it really can make a difference."

They're not the only school trying to do something about it.

Watch Naz's report about a school in London:

When vehicles stop, but the engine is still running, this 'idling' means fumes still get in to the air which is then breathed in by pupils, parents and teachers (and anyone else in the area!).

Air pollution can cause both short and long term effects on someone's health, especially for people with heart or lung conditions such as asthma.
