This is Jay.
Jay loves to stay active. If he's not playing soccer or basketball with his friends, then he's biking or skateboarding around his neighbourhood.
Jay has asthma, which means that sometimes when he's playing sports, or just doing something active, he'll have to take a break to catch his breath, or use his asthma inhaler.
He also pays close attention to air quality reports when it's hot outside, and chooses indoor activities when air quality is poor and there's a Smog Advisory in effect. He advises his friends to do the same, even though they don't have asthma, because poor air quality isn't good for anyone.
Jay likes to surf the net and read up on what the government and environmental
organizations are doing to help reduce air pollution.
He hopes to one day be an environmental lawyer or law-maker,
to help improve air quality and protect the environment.
