Toxic Air and America's Schools
In December, USA Today released a special report called The Smokestack Effect -- Toxic Air and America's Schools. The report indicates industrial pollution exists near 435 schools across the country. Considering that child care centers are often located near public schools, there should be concern about toxic chemicals being so close to child care centers. Visit content.usatoday.com/news/nation/environment/smokestack/index to see if schools in your community are listed and to watch videos from leading health experts on how to use information in the report.
