Why Are Children and the Elderly More Vulnerable?

Children and the elderly are particularly susceptible to the mental health effects of pollution. Children's developing brains are more sensitive to environmental toxins, which can result in long-term cognitive deficits and behavioral problems. For older adults, pollution can exacerbate existing health conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, further impacting mental well-being.
