Did you know...?
Children often breathe through their mouths, allowing polluted air to bypass natural filters in the nose and go straight into their lungs.
The AQHI is an initiative of Environment Canada, Health Canada, the B.C. Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy, the B.C. Ministry of Health Services and the B.C. Lung Association.
