Can air pollution affect unborn babies

Climate change is not only affecting the environment, but also the health of unborn babies, according to a new study. Researchers found that air pollution can reach the baby and cause health problems for the babies. The most common type of air pollution is particulate matter, which is made up of tiny particles of dust, soot, and other materials. These air particles are small enough to enter the lungs and enter the blood stream.
