Today is #CleanAirDay 🌱
There are many ways you can reduce air pollution, and remembering to turn your engine off when your vehicle is stationary is one of them 🅿️
Idling your engine wastes both fuel and money, in addition to emitting unnecessary air pollutants 💨

Air pollution is the largest environmental health risk we face today, according to @WHO.
When we breathe polluted air, it can inflame the lining of our lungs and get into our bloodstream ending up in the heart and brain, causing lung disease, heart disease, dementia and strokes.

Thank you to @idlingaction for our amazing banner, showcasing posters created by Year 5 pupils as part of their Anti-Idling Workshop. It is now taking pride of place outside the school!

Some great posters from students at Hayes Primary !

Proud of the banner to show the negative effect idling can have. Young people have greater exposure to harmful pollutants as they take twice as many breaths per minute, compared to adults. Read the banner for travel ideas and please switch off your engine! @idlingaction

Some great work by students at @hambroughps, who learn about air pollution at our school workshop took action to clean the air by asking idling drivers to switch off! Thanks to @EalingCouncil for the lovely video.

Idling for just one minute creates 150 balloons of toxic pollution. We all want to protect our children’s health. Let’s all make a pledge to stop idling and turn off our engines. 🙏 Read more: orlo.uk/zkyEB #NoIdling #EnginesOffEveryStop

Pollution levels are still high today, so let's all do our bit to help by avoiding leaving vehicle engines running when not needed. Choose walking, cycling or scooting instead!
23 Mar 2022
With higher levels of air pollution expected across London for the next few days, please remember to switch off your vehicle engines whenever possible. Even better walk, cycle or scoot instead!

Lionel Primary School in Brentford yesterday to teach children about the dangers of harmful fumes!
🌎Following the workshop, students approached those idling to educate them on the benefits of switching off their engines.

Great to see our latest batch of #NoIdling banners arriving at the schools! All designed by the pupils in our free air pollution workshops.
@idlingaction @hnps2015 this is brilliant- we can’t wait to see it up on school next week and we hope that it will result in #enginesoff. We also have signs up about this from @hackneycouncil thanks @PollyBillington @LoveDeBeauvoir @JamesFPeters for helping make that happen
