How does air pollution affect us?
Affect your immune system, so that you can catch infections more easily.
Make you cough, splutter, wheeze, sneeze, dizzy and it can make your eyes itch.
Give you green snot, and more bogeys than your nostrils have space for.
Pollution can be blamed for an estimated 350 premature deaths in Birmingham this year.
