#AirPollution #particlepollution #WHOMy books for kids that talk about air pollution have been translated into Spanish by the University of A Coruña (with the support of Dr @Maria Piñeiro Iglesias), have been converted to AR/VR by the collaboration of the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi and Mr @Karan Rao, have been distributed in schools from Texas to England, and people are asking for more.
