Based on the possible impacts of air
pollution on children engaged in a walk-to-school program, what
recommendations would you make to mitigate any possible negative
impacts?
Answer:
Great! Here are some of the recommendations that you might
consider:
• Have children walk on routes with less traffic
• Do not have children walk to school on high air pollution
days
• Replace diesel buses
• Have children wait outside the school away from the pick
up/drop off zone before school
• Do not allow cars or buses to idle
