Breathing is the most universal experience there is. But in too many places, it carries a hidden danger. Scientists have linked air pollution to a long and growing list of health problems, from heart attacks and strokes to dementia and premature birth. Environmental journalist Beth Gardiner explains that the air we breathe is literally killing us, but she finds hope in this global threat too. Beth explores how our air got so toxic and what we can do to clean it up.
