(2020·苏州一模)High prams (婴儿车) with coverings that protect a baby's head could go some way towards reducing exposure to dangerous particle pollution.
By installing air quality sensors and taking prams for a walk, a team at the University of Surrey, UK, has found that higher prams are better, because most particle pollution is concentrated in the first metre above road level.On average, children in prams breathe at a height
of about 0.85 metres, meaning they are exposed to about
60 percent more pollution than adults.
On top of this, particle pollution is more dangerous
to babies than adults, says Jonathan Griggs at Queen Mary
University of London, who was not involved in the study.Babies breathe faster than adults and they are easily hurt for the effects of pollution because the protective mechanisms in their lungs are not yet fully developed, he says.
When choosing the best pram for defending against pollution, the weather is also a factor.Hot summer air concentrates pollution close to the ground, making seat height particularly important.But when the air is cold, the heat from car exhausts (排气管) causes dangerous particles higher in the air, after which they fall.In these cases, prams with some kind of covering can help protect children from pollution falling down on them from above.
“There are very few existing studies to draw conclusive evide nce on which pram design is best,” says Prashant Kumar, who led the research.So far he is only able to identify broad things to look for in a pram.In the future, it may be possible to purchase add on air filter (过滤) systems for prams.One currently in development is called Brizi, which consists of a flat headrest with wings on either side of the baby's head.Air is sucked in on one side, cleaned, and blown out the other, creating a bubble of slightly
