So all sorts of different, you know, strategies that people can very intentionally implement in order to make the air better for everyone.
Imagine stepping outside for a breath of fresh air, only to find that it’s anything but refreshing. In this episode of 'Healthy Mind Matters', host Maria Shilaos sits down with Dr. Liz Joy, Senior Medical Director for Wellness and Nutrition at Intermountain Healthcare, to chat about the hidden dangers of air pollution on both our physical and emotional well-being. Dr. Joy doesn't just talk about the problem; she offers practical steps we can all take to breathe a little easier.
From cutting down on tailpipe emissions by using public transportation and carpooling, to simply turning off your car engine when idling, these small actions can make a big difference. Dr. Joy also touches on the importance of tier fuels and how refineries are stepping up to produce cleaner options. One of the most compelling parts of the conversation is the role children play as advocates for air quality awareness.
Their influence can help foster a culture that values cleaner air for everyone. Teleworking and trip chaining are also highlighted as effective strategies to reduce our carbon footprint. Dr. Joy's insights remind us that we all have a role to play in improving air quality and protecting our health. Tune in to learn how you can contribute to a healthier environment for yourself and your community.
