Thanks in part to the work of Utah Moms for Clean Air, schools will now receive air quality data to determine whether it is safe to let children play outdoors on bad air quality days.

Giving young lungs a break

By Ben Fulton

Utah Moms For Clean Air drew up an ambitious to-do list when it formed in March 2007.

Alert parents and bus drivers about the dangers of idling cars while waiting to pick up children from school? Check. Retrofit school bus exhausts for cleaner emissions? The group has $2 million in grants to get that done.

On Wednesday, the group was applauding an initiative to provide schools with updated reports on air quality so vulnerable kids can be kept indoors during recess.

As a blanket of haze hung over the Salt Lake Valley on Wednesday, a coalition of state agencies and community groups began publicizing guidelines developed last January for when to restrict kids’ outside activities. Schools who want daily updated reports on air quality can get them via computer and determine whether students should stay inside.

“It’s just another piece of monitoring daily environmental events that already apply to children,” said Michelle Hofmann, a pediatrician and co-founder of Utah Moms for Clean Air, who notes that schools already pay attention to temperature and weather when allowing children outside. “This, however, is a very important one to watch.”

The culprit is pollutants known as PM2.5. Air with levels of 35.5 micrograms of pollutants per cubic meter is deemed bad enough to warrant keeping indoors students with respiratory and other ailments — poorly controlled asthma, cystic fibrosis, lung disease or heart disease. At 90 micrograms and above, all children should stay indoors, the guidelines say.Compliance is voluntary. Interested schools may register with DEQ to have daily air quality levels sent to them by computer list-serve or just check a Web page, http://health.utah.gov/asthma. School principals and administrators may act on them as they see fit. Parents of children with health concerns must request that school staff keep their children indoors on days marked “yellow” or “red” for marginal and poor air quality, respectively.gay ass fuck amateur free

Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker has recently announced an aggressive campaign to make Salt Lake City one of the leaders in sustainability and forward thinking “green” policies. Our air quality is, of course, a beneficiary of these kinds of changes, which include revisions to building codes to encourage green design, development strategies to reduce sprawl, increasing mass transit, and other ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Utah Moms for Clean Air applauds this action and hopes that other cities in Utah will also follow this model.

The Salt Lake Tribune published an editorial about these changes here. The text of the editorial follows.

Salt Lake: A model city
Tribune Editorial
Sustainability. Sounds simple enough. We’ve managed so far, right? Just keep on keepin’ on.

But that’s the old definition, one that no longer applies to the modern world.

The evidence is mounting that we’re poisoning the planet, destroying our health, erasing open spaces, depleting precious resources at an alarming rate. That life, as we live it, is not sustainable. That the quality of life for ourselves and future generations will deteriorate, drastically, unless we change our ways.

So Salt Lake City officials have undertaken a first-of-its-kind “sustainability” project. If successful, they’ll develop a model the nation can live by. They’ll redefine the word.

Alternative energy. Mobility and mass transportation. Urban forestry. Housing accessibility and diversity. Community health and safety. Recycling and waste reduction. Open space, parks, trails. Greenhouse gas and pollution reductions. Nutrition and food production. Those are the raw ingredients for a comprehensive sustainability ordinance. Throw them into the code book, add a dash of resolve.

City officials, with the help of consultants, are still working out the details. An inventory of the city’s green policies and initiatives is being taken and organized. Outdated concepts and ordinances that stand in the way of sustainable lifestyles will be purged. And new initiatives designed to make Salt Lake City more walkable, more livable, more sustainable — to make it the greenest of cities

Parts of the amalgamated ordinance — measures to protect streams and promote xeriscaping — are already on the books. Other endeavors — more mass transit, a hybridized city fleet, open space preservation — are works in progress. Still more initiatives — tree-planting programs, recycling bins for office buildings — are tried and proven elsewhere, but not here.

Plus, changes in city codes could allow backyard gardeners to sell produce from front-stoop stands, and make it easier to retrofit historic homes with solar panels and energy-efficient windows.

The finished product — the nation’s first comprehensive sustainability ordinances — will be unveiled at open houses by the end of the year. Mayor Ralph Becker hopes to complete the fast-tracked process by February. The planet’s clock is ticking.

The Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret News both reported today, November 10, 2008, that Utah’s bad air wreaks havoc on those along the Wasatch Front with ailing hearts.  The results of study by, among others, BYU’s own Dr. Arden Pope, are not a surprise, but it is always good to have more evidence of our concerns.

See the Deseret News’ Story “Does Pollution Raise Heart Risks?” By Lois Collins HERE.

“Utah’s bad air tough on weak hearts
By Heather May
The Salt Lake Tribune

Add this to the pile of evidence that shows the Wasatch Front’s dirty winter air should send you packing for mountain air: Moderate increases in pollution send more heart-failure patients to the hospital.

A study published Nov. 1 in the American Journal of Cardiology shows Utah’s air pollution leads to a 13 percent increase in hospitalizations, likely because the microscopic soot and dust released by automobiles and industry prevents the heart from maintaining adequate circulation.
“That ought to be a concern to anybody with heart failure. It also should be of concern to all of us,” said C. Arden Pope, a study author whose prior work has linked pollution increases to lung illnesses and increases in heart attacks. Heart failure occurs when the heart can’t pump enough blood, and can be caused by heart attacks.

Still, the environmental epidemiologist at Brigham Young University, who wrote this month’s article with researchers and doctors at Intermountain Healthcare, said he’s optimistic about the findings.

With heart disease being the leading cause of death in Utah, “anytime you can find a risk factor that’s controllable, it’s sort of good news,” Pope said. “The bad news is that we do have episodes where our air quality is quite poor. . . . We have made some success. It’s not clean enough.”
John Nemelka knows. The 56-year-old heart-failure patient takes about 40 pills a day for his weak and damaged heart muscle and an inherited disorder that puts him at risk for sudden death. He estimates he stayed indoors five to seven times last winter during inversions.

“When I start gasping for air, that’s when I turn around and go back in the house,” said the West Jordan man, who has a pacemaker and is awaiting a heart transplant. “When it [the heart] just doesn’t work properly, the least little bit of inversion and problems in breathing all affect your heart.” Dale Renlund, medical director of the heart-failure program at Intermountain Medical Center and co-author of the study, said he is now telling heart-failure patients to stay indoors during “yellow” and “red” air-quality days.

“What’s been surprising is that many of them have already known this, that when the air pollution is bad they don’t feel quite as well,” Renlund said. “They will say, ‘You didn’t need a study to tell me that.’ ”
