Decades of research have shown that children's lung and brain development are harmed by fossil fuel pollution. Now a slew of recent data--including from the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) study in London--show that reducing air pollution measurably improves children's health. The benefits of clean energy to children's present and future health should be a major selling point for renewable energy projects. Join us to hear about these findings and learn how you can use them in your climate advocacy.
