In scientific studies, mice younger than two months old who were exposed to tiny particles of common air pollutants showed brain damage consistent with those affecting people suffering from autism and schizophrenia.

Ask the government to enforce stronger environmental laws to prevent mental health problems in babies.

The study suggests that air pollution might irritate the brain and damage cognitive functioning in human fetuses and babies, too. If air pollution could be a factor in juvenile mental problems, we must do all we can to keep kids healthy and protect their developing brains.

Send a message to the government asking our leaders to take action against air pollution.
