Health & Fitness – Children are more vulnerable to the effects of air pollution because their lungs don't fully form until they are adolescents, the American Academy of Pediatrics noted.
I'm more worried about parents that smoke in their house with kids than "greenhouse gases and pollutants'
Our air quality has gotten much better in the past 35 years:

"But during these 35 years of growing population, employment, and industrial production, the Environmental Protection Agency reports, the environment has substantially improved. Emissions of the six principal air pollutants have decreased by 53%. Carbon monoxide emissions have dropped from 197 million tons per year to 89 million; nitrogen oxides from 27 million tons to 19 million, and sulfur dioxide from 31 million to 15 million. Particulates are down 80%, and lead emissions have declined by more than 98%."

We have to cut down on greenhouse gases and pollutants
We could also do with a little less hot air as well, engineer. If you catch my drift.
