By 2011, 25-40% of all small particulate matter air pollution in the US was attributed to wildfires and the contribution of wildfires to air quality will likely increase as they proliferate and other anthropogenic sources decline. Wildfire produced air pollutants are spread across thousands of miles by prevailing winds. Wildfires, and the air pollutants carried by their smoke plumes, have profound impacts on adult health. However, far less is known about their impacts on infants, who are particularly sensitive to the adverse exposures associated with wildfire events. Air pollution,…
