“We’re finding more and more evidence that air pollution particles are making their way into many different organs of the body and now we have clear evidence of how that could be happening.”@ourcommonair @DrGaryFuller

New research shows pollution particles can stick to red blood cells, traveling through the body—and masks may help stop them in their tracks.

Hi @mikpanko . Are you the person that wrote the very handy expresso-app writing tool? I use it in a classroom practical in my course to help scientists to write and communicate with the public. It's great, but it's stopped working. The URL times out. Can it be fixed please?

This summer, there were 83 wildfires across London - over *three times* as many as in the summer of 2020. The climate crisis is on our doorstep. I am determined to do everything possible to ensure we are prepared for the ongoing impact of wildfires and extreme heat.
