It's a small percentage of drivers who repeatedly keep their engines running when parked (#idling).
For their own personal comfort they worsen #airpollution that stunts children's lung growth and contributes to #climatechange.
🙏🏽 Please say #NO2idling 👇🏽 change.org/p/uk-parliamen…

Did you know…
An #idling vehicle produces almost 2x the exhaust emissions as a moving vehicle.
Diesel engine exhaust is carcinogenic group 1 like tobacco smoke.
Children are exposed to more #airpollution as closer to vehicle exhaust pipes. #NO2idling #AirPollution #ClimateAction

@hackneywick @VictoriaLC13 @Transcendental1 @CarFreeNorwich @baroncols @JamesCleeton @WhizzL1z @IsSaddleThereIs @seasonalight @LdnPeregrines As we approach the school there's a vehicle parked on the pavement, engine running, driver chatting on mobile phone. On the way back, still there, #idling the engine while chatting on the phone. Kids scooting by and babies in buggies all breathing carcinogenic diesel exhaust. 🤨
