Electric school buses give kids a pollution-free ride to school. But the EPA wants to restructure the Clean School Bus Program and prioritize polluting “alternative fuels”. Take 5 minutes to submit a comment and let the EPA know that you support clean rides for kids: bit.ly/CSB-Comment

It’s spring cleaning time! 🧽 Did you know 90% of household dust samples contain toxic chemicals like phthalates & PFAS? These can be especially harmful to kids.

Freshen up your home:
✔️ Damp dust surfaces
✔️ Vacuum & mop with water
✔️ Ventilate often

Data centers power our digital world, but they are also creating noise pollution in our communities. Backup generators and the constant hum of cooling systems are noisy enough to disrupt sleep, raise anxiety, and trigger headaches for nearby residents.

We spend 90% of our time indoors so indoor air quality matters. But air fresheners, candles & some cleaners can release harmful chemicals that irritate skin & lungs.

Skip the scents and open your windows instead! 🪟🍃

The EPA just repealed the Endangerment Finding, meaning six dangerous greenhouse gases will no longer be regulated. This reckless decision protects our most polluting companies while hurting our health, lives, and futures.

We think of air pollution as an outdoor problem, but the air inside our homes matters too. We spend ~90% of our time indoors, where air can be 2–5x more polluted. Cleaner indoor air helps kids learn better and families stay healthy. Learn more: bit.ly/healthy-indo...

The EPA plans to stop measuring the value of health benefits when setting pollution standards. Instead, it will prioritize how much it costs for major polluters to curb their emissions.

The message couldn’t be clearer: industrial polluters have higher priority than our health.

What’s really hiding in your wall paint could surprise you.
Many older paints release harmful VOCs, affecting your indoor air quality. Opt for low-VOC or zero-VOC paints for a safer, healthier home! 🏠💚

Winter brings joy but also higher pollution from fireplaces, traffic & cold weather. Kids breathe more and absorb more.

❄️ Cold weather shouldn’t mean dangerous air for our kids.
Winter pollution traps harmful particles where children breathe leading to more coughing, asthma attacks & ER visits.

No child should struggle to breathe. Let’s push for cleaner air.

That comfy couch might be releasing more than just relaxation… These chemicals linger in dust & can be inhaled.

Opt for untreated wood/natural fabrics + frequent cleaning! 🌿
