Kids' Environment and Health Cohort
@kenvhc.bsky.social
A new data resource for England, linking child health, education, census and environmental datasets for research into how the local environment affects children’s health as they grow 🌱 https://kenvh-cohort.org.uk/
🌬️ 96% of England's nurseries are exposed to unsafe air pollution (PM₂.₅) — above WHO limits. Young children especially vulnerable 🧒 21,000+ sites analysed (2018–2022) 🏙️ Higher in urban, deprived & diverse areas We need: 🚗 Less traffic 🌳 More green space 📊 Better monitoring 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.en...
