Don't exercise midday or in the afternoon, and avoid strenuous
outdoor activity when ozone smog or other pollution levels are high. The
highest levels of ozone typically occur during the afternoon.

Avoid congested streets and rush hour traffic since motor vehicles
are a primary
source of air pollution. Also remember that pollution
levels can be high up to 50 feet from the roadway.
Make sure teachers, coaches and recreation officials know about
air pollution and act accordingly.
Be aware or the quality of the air you breathe. Pollution levels
are often given with local weather reports and printed in
newspapers.
Watch the calendar. Ozone smog tends to be worst during the
May-to-September "smog season". Be especially conscious of
smog levels during hot weather.
