Today's a good day to think about walking, or catching public transport, to school & leaving the car at home. If not possible, please #DropOffSwitchOff to avoid the pollution causesd by idling engines. #CleanAirDay2021 #commitment

Did you know that cutting pollution outside schools by 20% could boost children's learning by a month a year?
This #CleanAirDay we're calling on everyone to travel more sustainably and cycle or walk short journeys. Together we can make a brighter future for all by bike. 🚲💚

Thank you @Primrose_Phil 👊🏽
I got tired of talking & pleading with the council to protect my son's lung & brain growth. Kids around here are likely to have 5-10% reduced lung volume yet so little action to stop vehicles #idling outside schools.

It's so gross! There needs to be a proper national campaign, laws, notices and signs up saying no idling. The NY system is better. Often want to tell people to turn off their engines but it's not so easy to just go do it 😅 #no2idling

There is no excuse for #Idling
Drivers must be made aware of the dangers to our #ChildrensHealth #ToxicFumes cause #ChildAsthma and stunted #Lung and #Brain development #LetChildrenBreathe #CleanAir #DropOffSwitchOff

Wouldn't that be brilliant!
Idling is a HUGE source of entirely unnecessary air pollution.
Many drivers seem unaware that they are filling their own vehicle with toxic fumes. 🙄
Never mind polluting the air of all those around them & increasing carbon emissions.

Very true. These #ParkingBuddies are encouraging parents to #StopIdling #DropOffSwitchOff #LetChikdrenBreathe #CleanAir

Thank you for highlighting this, it's really appreciated. If everyone stopped idling it would help reduce the pollution. As you know, when someone idles the emissions inside the car are 3 times higher and they're burning their fuel at a rapid rate. Save money - cut your engine.

#ChildrensLives are put at risk daily from breathing in #ToxicFumes from #Idling vehicles especially on the #SchoolRun
We need stricter laws NOW #ChildAsthma and stunted #Lung and #Brain growth in #Children are a MAJOR concern
#LetChildrenBreathe #CleanAir #DropOffSwitchOff

Children are exposed to five times more NO2 pollution on the #schoolrun than at any time during the day. This is due to congested traffic and #idling vehicles. Children's lung & brain growth cannot wait for drivers to do the right thing. We need a Mayor that says #NO2idling. 🙏🏽

Parents must be encouraged to #Walk or #Cycle to #School with their #Children but if they MUST drive which exposes their children to 30% MORE #ToxicFumes then they should always #DropOffSwitchOff and say #No2Idling to protect our children

Following on from becoming a #smokefree site as of January 2019, we are continuing efforts to provide a clean, healthy environment for all who visit the hospital by asking all drivers to ‘Switch Off when you Drop Off’ #DropOffSwitchOff #CleanAirRUH ow.ly/gRrA30nAirg

We’re asking drivers to switch off their engines when dropping off passengers at the RUH as part of our new air quality campaign to target idling vehicles – especially those that drop-off or wait in the main entrance area ow.ly/TsSi30nAi3A #DropOffSwitchOff #CleanAirRUH

I've just taken my own advice and emailed @Scotmid to ask them to put a #DropOffSwitchOff equivalent poster up in my local store window overlooking the car park generally full of idling cars. For the health of their staff, customers, toddlers in pushchairs & dogs chained outside!
