Far fewer infants in sub-Saharan #African #cities would die through #pollution if just small changes like using cleaner fuels were made to air quality, says a new #study. bit.ly/2NqoJeH #city #research #airpollution #health #children #infant #air #fuel #WHO #Africa

Here's Upstart's ambition: daily opportunities for children under 7yrs to learn through play outdoors, in natural surroundings. Research shows not just health benefits, but educational benefits too. It's obvious, #Scotland. Let's do it! treehugger.com/health/huge-s…
