Did you know children are more vulnerable to ozone pollution than adults? Their growing lungs breathe more air per pound of body weight than adults, and they're more active outdoors which increases their exposure to harmful pollutants. Commute Solutions' programs reduce children's exposure to pollutants by reducing the number of vehicles in the school zone.

Commute Solutions provides a number of free programs and services to schools, districts, and PTAs to help them become more "air aware". Commute Solutions provides complimentary matching for the SchoolPool, Walking School Bus, and Bike Buddies Program. Commute Solutions staff is also available for presentations to nursing staff, teachers, parents, and students on air quality education and Commute Solutions programs. Schools may also obtain free educational materials on air pollution and ozone reduction, upon request. 

If you feel your school would benefit from any of these programs, please contact us for more information.
