Air Pollution - What does it mean for your health?

This leaflet explains where to get up-to-date information on current levels of air pollution, what air pollution can mean for your health, and what you can do about it. It has been fully revised and updated (from an earlier leaflet of the same title) to take account of significant improvements to the public information service and to offer more associated health advice. It is published by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) in partnership with the Department of Health, the Scottish Executive, and the Department of Environment in Northern Ireland.
