Do low emission schemes improve children鈥檚 lungs?

A new study with 3,000 primary school children in London and Luton will see if new initiatives to reduce air pollution, such as London鈥檚 new Ultra Low Emission Zone, can provide health benefits. Children are especially vulnerable to damage caused by air pollution, which can stunt lung growth and affect other organs.
