Did you know...?

Children are more vulnerable to air pollution: they spend more active time outdoors, especially in summer when pollution levels are higher.

The AQHI is an initiative between Environment Canada, Health Canada, the Prince Edward Island Department of Environment, Labour and Justice, and the Prince Edward Island Department of Health and Wellness in partnership with the Prince Edward Island Lung Association.
