Brief summary: This clinical trial will conduct an educational intervention to promote knowledge of and preventive health behaviors related to personal air pollution exposure. Air pollution is n ubiquitous environmental exposure that is associated with harmful health effects including lung cancer. The educational intervention is comprised of 2 educational videos that include information regarding air pollution, health effects, and personal preventive health behaviors to reduce air pollution exposure and the use of a wearable air pollution sensor. The knowledge gained from this study may inform future research that will be designed to promote awareness of air pollution and its health effects.

Detailed description: OUTLINE:

Participants watch 2 educational videos during week 3 regarding air pollution, health effects, and personal preventive health behaviors to reduce air pollution exposure. Participants complete questionnaires at weeks 1 and 5.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Adults 18 years or older: The evidence for personal strategies to reduce air pollution exposure has been focused on adults
* Live in Seattle, WA: The study is designed to focus on Seattle, WA such as using EnviroFlash alerts
* Own a smartphone: The participant requires a smartphone to setup the Flow app for the air pollution sensor
* Not traveling in the near-term: The study is designed to assess air pollution patterns in the local Seattle area
* Leave your home for at least 7 hours per week: Participants will use a wearable air pollution sensor to measure air pollutant levels from indoor and outdoor sources
