Toxic Issue 321, 2019

One in three children in the UK is growing up inhaling unsafe levels of air pollution. Dispatches runs a world-first experiment to reduce hundreds of primary school children's exposure to toxic air. Reporter Morland Sanders reveals that it's not just exhausts that produce dangerous emissions, with previously unidentified toxins coming off every vehicle, even electric ones. Dispatches asks: is the government doing enough to protect our children's health? Is the motor industry to blame? And what can we do to prevent dangerous exposure to children now?
