Free radon test kits are now available at public libraries across New Brunswick.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter homes through cracks in foundations and gaps around pipes. About one in four New Brunswick homes may have levels above Health Canada's guideline.

High radon exposure increases your risk of lung cancer, and since radon is invisible, odourless and tasteless, testing is the only way to know your home's level.

Testing is easy:
✅ Place the kit in your home and leave it undisturbed for at least 91 days.
✅ Return it to the library to be sent for analysis.
✅ Get your results in 4 to 6 weeks.

Clean air is essential to healthy lungs.

Investing in new fossil fuel projects means continued air pollution, increased greenhouse gas emissions, and greater risks to our health and environment.

NB Lung is calling on the Government of New Brunswick to prioritize cleaner energy solutions that protect public health and our future.

Add your voice! Support our call to stop new fossil fuel investments in New Brunswick.

Join us as we call for better energy projects in at the NB Legislature at Noon on Tuesday, October 20th, for the "Voice of the People Rally", organized by Protect the Chignecto Isthmus Coalition.

Would you know what to do if someone was having an asthma attack?

Asthma attacks can become serious quickly. Recognizing the signs — including wheezing, persistent coughing, difficulty speaking, chest tightness or distressed breathing — and knowing how to respond can make a difference.

Remember C.A.R.E.:
🔹 Calm — Keep them calm and reassure them
🔹 Air — Sit them upright and encourage slow breathing
🔹 Rescue Inhaler — Help them find and use their rescue inhaler
🔹 Emergency — Call 911 at any stage, especially if there is no inhaler or their symptoms aren't improving

If available, using a spacer with an inhaler can help medication reach the lungs more effectively.
Knowing what to do during an asthma attack could help someone when they need it most.
