to fine particulates and avoid exercising near busy roads

vehicles
* Turn off your engine when idling for more than 10 seconds

conditioner to 75 degrees or above.
Anyone sensitive to changes in air quality may be affected when

heart or lung conditions should reduce or avoid exertion and heavy
work outdoors.
