Clean Air Is As Serious As A Heart Attack (Thousands, Actually)

Recent news out of the UK shows us just how serious the hidden effects of air pollution can be. After one year of implementing a “clean air zone,” one city found that hospital and doctor spending reduced by over 30,000 pounds per month! More important than the money is the improvements to human health, with respiratory illnesses going down 25% and heart problem visits reduced by 24%.
