Child in buggy with air pollution face mask
Air pollution mask. View of a young child in a buggy wearing a face mask to protect him from air pollution in a city. The main source of air pollution in cities is from car exhausts. Cars produce poisonous gases such as nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides, carbon monoxide and ozone. They also emit unburnt hydrocarbons and partially burnt, microscopic particles of soot. Cars using leaded petrol also give out lead fumes which have been proved to affect the mental development of children. Face masks like the one shown here may filter out the larger particles of soot but are of little help against the other pollutants

EDITORS COMMENTS
This thought-provoking print captures the harsh reality of air pollution's impact on our youngest generation. In this image, we see a young child comfortably seated in a buggy, but what catches our attention is the face mask adorning their innocent face. This protective gear serves as a stark reminder of the polluted environment they are forced to navigate daily. Cities, bustling with activity and progress, unfortunately become breeding grounds for toxic air due to car exhausts. The poisonous gases emitted by vehicles - nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides, carbon monoxide, and ozone - pose significant health risks to both adults and children alike. Moreover, cars release unburnt hydrocarbons and microscopic particles of soot that further deteriorate air quality. While this small child's mask may filter out larger particles of soot from entering their lungs, it offers little defense against other harmful pollutants present in the atmosphere. It is disheartening to acknowledge that even at such an early age, these youngsters must adapt to wearing masks as a means of self-preservation against invisible threats. The detrimental effects extend beyond physical health; studies have shown that lead fumes emitted by cars using leaded petrol can hinder mental development in children. This revelation emphasizes the urgent need for collective action towards cleaner transportation alternatives. As we gaze upon this poignant image captured by Science Photo Library, let us reflect on our responsibility to protect future generations from the perils of air pollution. It serves as a call-to-action for policymakers and individuals alike to
