This forecast means people who are sensitive to air pollution should avoid moderate exertion outdoors. Sensitive groups include children who are active outside, people who work or exercise outdoors, and those with heart conditions and respiratory ailments such as asthma, bronchitis and emphysema. Everyone else should reduce prolonged or heavy exertion...(emphases added)
OK, fine. So what can us good citizens do to help?
Citizens can help reduce air pollution by taking some of the following actions:
--Limit driving by riding the bus, walking, bicycling or postponing trips.
This is a good example of why I think it's generally a bad idea for people to get in any way accustomed to the government telling them what's good for them...
