Let’s Cut Back on Diesel Exhaust from Idling School Buses!
While school buses are the safest way to get to and from school, diesel exhaust from idling school buses pollute the air and can affect the health of school bus drivers and the children they serve. This October please take part in Children’s Health Month and recognize October 6 as Clean School Bus Day! Ask your school district to put in place a "no idling" policy for school buses. Visit the U.S. EPA’s Web site on anti-idling at www.epa.gov/otaq/schoolbus/antiidling.htm for tips, resources, and links. For more information on Children’s Health Month, visit www.childrenshealth.gov/calendar.html.
