This talk reviews the effects of air pollution on children’s lungs. It first describes the pollutant mix in urban areas, then reviews in vitro data on how fossil fuel particles increase susceptibility to infection. The epidemiological evidence for adverse health effects is then examined, and how the risks of air pollution can be communicated to patients, the public and policy makers described.
