A study says children exposed to air pollution may have weaker brain connections. This can affect thinking, emotions, and movement. Researchers from ISGlobal in Spain studied 3,626 children. They found pollution harms brain networks that control attention and body movement. The study focused on pollutants like PM2.5, PM10, and NO2. The effects may last into adolescence, researchers said. More research is needed to understand the full impact. Experts warn that reducing air pollution is important to protect children's brain health. The study was published in Environment International.
