Did you know...?
Pollutants are absorbed into your bloodstream as you breathe, traveling throughout your body and starting a chemical chain reaction that can affect your heart and other organs.
The AQHI is an initiative between Environment Canada, Health Canada, and the New Brunswick Department of Environment and Local Government and the New Brunswick Department of Health in partnership with the New Brunswick Lung Association.
