“…As previously discussed (ANDREÃO; ALBUQUERQUE, 2021;DANTAS et al, 2020;GIODA et al, 2021), air quality management involves the identification of concern areas and pollutants and the assessment of human exposure and health effects. In this context, the project "Clean air for a good start" could improve the generation, exchange and accessibility of information on air quality through the participation of universities, municipalities and communities and suggest and implement actions to reduce exposure to air pollution with focus on early childhood.…”

In early childhood, air pollution leads to an increased risk of disease, premature death, and development of disruptions. Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is considered the classical pollutant of major concern. However, in Brazil, fine particulate monitoring is still limited and restricted to a few cities. Particularly, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, only one automatic station obtains PM2.5 concentrations and publishes the air quality indexes daily. This study is part of the project “Clean air for a good start” managed by the Horizon Citizen Foundation, with the goal of obtaining evidence to set a plan to reduce children exposition to air pollution. Data is shared on a global web platform. Results showed that PM2.5 levels are high when compared with WHO guidelines and coordinated actions would be needed to decrease emissions of primary pollutants and secondary aerosol’s precursors.

“…Como já foi discutido por outros autores (ANDREÃO; ALBUQUERQUE, 2021;DANTAS et al, 2020;GIODA et al, 2021), o gerenciamento da qualidade do ar compreende a identificação das áreas e dos poluentes mais críticos e o conhecimento das consequências da exposição aos poluentes sobre saúde humana. Nesse contexto, o projeto "Ares novos para a primeira infância" pode contribuir para melhorar a geração, intercâmbio e divulgação das informações sobre qualidade do ar, através da participação de universidades, governos municipais e as comunidades e sugerir a implementação de ações para reduzir a exposição à poluição, principalmente das crianças.…”

Resumo Na primeira infância, a poluição do ar leva a um aumento das doenças, mortes prematuras e perturbações no desenvolvimento. O material particulado fino (MP2,5) é considerado o poluente clássico de maior importância. No entanto, no Brasil, o monitoramento de material particulado fino é limitado e restrito a poucas cidades. Na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, apenas uma estação registra as concentrações de MP2,5 e divulga diariamente os índices de qualidade do ar. Este estudo é parte do projeto “Ares Novos para a Primeira Infância” coordenado pela Fundação Horizonte Cidadão, com o objetivo de obter evidências para estabelecer um plano para reduzir a exposição das crianças à poluição do ar. Os dados são compartilhados numa plataforma virtual global. Os resultados mostram níveis de MP2,5 altos quando comparados com as recomendações da OMS e a necessidade de ações coordenadas para reduzir as emissões de poluentes primários e de precursores de poluentes secundários.

“…Particulate matter (PM) represents one of the most important classes of air pollutants, mainly due to the high heterogeneity of its composition (De Paula et al, 2015;Gioda and Amaral et al, 2011;Kim et al, 2015). The impacts caused by these particles are observed on human health, ecosystems, visibility, and climate processes (Alves, 2005;Gieré e Querol, 2010;Masiol et al, 2015;Pope et al, 1989).…”

“…Different plants can accumulate toxic substances from the atmosphere, such as metals or organic compounds (AL-Alam et al, 2019;Gioda et al, 2021;Monna et al, 2017). Plants, however, can act as air pollution filters due to their ability to remove pollutants from the atmosphere by gaseous exchange, absorbing substances present in the air through dry or wet deposition of particulate material (Janhäll, 2015;Xie et al, 2018).…”
