Rima Habre, Sc.D., of the Maternal and Developmental Risks from Environmental and Social Stressors (MADRES) was interviewed for the PBS documentary “Something in the Air,” which is about air pollution and its effects on children’s health.
“Air pollution is very tightly related to kid’s health,” Habre shared. “Kids who live in communities with more air pollution suffer more lung damage, and once they move to cleaner communities, they regain lung function.”
