lovely people happy Friday fry yay
tomorrow is the first official day of
fall the Autumn Equinox The Equinox
happens once in the fall and once in the
spring and it marks the only days where
there is nearly the same amount of
daylight and darkness at all latitudes
I'm Coy this is CNN 10 and on this
penultimate day of fall let's tackle
today's headlines we start with a
troubling new study out of Stanford
University where researchers found that
Wildfire smoke is undoing progress
toward cleaner air Across America air
pollution from Wildfire smoke can spread
for Miles like this summer when smoke
from Canada drifted into the U.S turning
skies in New York City yellow and
Wildfire smoke is a type of particle
pollution or PM 2.5 because the
particulates are so tiny they can sneak
past our body's natural defenses and get
into our system if they get into your
lungs and bloodstream they could trigger
asthma attacks or even heart attacks in
some people and long-term exposure can
lead to deadly diseases taking months or
even years off of your life PM 2.5 had
become less concentrated in recent
decades thanks to air quality
improvement measures but this new study
shows that progress has been slowed or
even reversed in 35 States because of
wildfire smoke here's CNN's chief
medical correspondent Dr Sanjay Gupta
with more look around you take a breath
what do you notice
[Music]
it's hard to imagine but even air that
looks and feels clean could still be
harmful
air pollution is when anything chemical
physical or biological changes the
atmosphere the main culprit of air
pollution has long been fossil fuels but
wildfires like the ones that we've been
seeing a lot of lately are increasingly
impacting our air quality in fact as
things stand now according to the World
Health Organization nearly all of us
breathe air that is polluted what you
might notice again even if the air seems
okay are symptoms like eye nose or
throat irritation wheezing coughing
headaches fatigue dizziness
and one type of air pollution called
particle pollution or PM 2.5 can be
especially dangerous and that's because
of how tiny the particles are these
particles can be 1 20th the width of a
human hair which means they can travel
past your body's usual defenses now I
know you hear this and a lot of this
might worry you but there are also ways
that you can protect yourself first of
all just like you might check the
weather before you leave the house you
should also check your air quality in
fact many countries now have tools where
they monitor the air quality index
something known as aqi the United
Nations also has a live air pollution
exposure calculator so when the air
quality is bad you know that you should
start staying indoors if you can if you
do have to go outside try to do
activities where you're not breathing as
hard go for a walk instead of a run be
extra careful when it's hot outside as
higher temperatures can increase
particle pollution but a big picture for
all of us pay attention to the air
around you

sports leagues has the biggest
viewership Major League Baseball

defensive linemen in the NFL thanks for
spending some time with our CNN 10
family today sharing some tips and
tactics for achieving success in life
what inspires you Grady what motivates
you man really you know especially at
this point man just being the best I can
be you know and then that's whatever
aspect anything I decide to get involved
in I want to be the best that I can be
and I feel like if I'm the best that I
can be I can be one of the best to do it
so I mean as a player you know going out
emptying a tank every day putting in the
work whether it's physical mental you
know on the recovery side of things just
doing the things that's when it's time
to go I'm ready to go now things in life
rarely go straight how important do you
think adversity is in shaping us as
people man uh adversity adversity is
inevitable you know it's going to come
but it's how you handle it you know when
things get hard that shows your true
character you know it's easy for you to
um be excited when things are going your
way when you know the outcome is going
to be good in your favor you just got to
be ready for when adversity comes and to
keep conquering and keep conquering
that's what life about now for the
athletes out there who may be going
through some tough times maybe facing a
setback an injury a big loss what advice
would you have for them at the end of
the day all you can do is uh control
where you're at right now and give your
best foot forward every day you know
what I'm saying so when you do overcome
whatever you're going through whether
it's an injury you miss some time now
you're back on the field now you can
appreciate them hard days when they come
you don't take it for granted because
you know what it's like to not have it I
think sometimes people we so hard on
ourselves like thinking you know we
should always feel happy it's always
should happen always supposed to be good
but it's okay to be you know down
sometimes sad like that'll make you a
weak person that'll make uh or like it's
something wrong with you or something
like that like you human but at the end
of the day those time makes are are
higher times better you know because you
gotta know like you know pain is
inevitable uh things not going your way
is inedible but it's always about how
you react to it and overcome it you know
you got to have that undeniable
Unstoppable mindset that is such a
powerful Point especially in today's
world of social media when you look and
you're scrolling through these feeds
yeah now you see everybody highlights
look and feel happy all the time that's
not real life yeah it's not real life
and that's okay that's not real life you
know what I'm saying is it just I think
when you look at it like
um it's okay not for everything to be
okay you know and then you won't be as
hard as yourself or like feeling like
you know maybe you're getting so far
left behind in life doing certain things
or you gotta run you got to run your
race at your pace now for those folks
out there who are striving to be great
is there a motto or Mantra that you've
learned along the way that helps drive
you towards your full potential I want
to do what I can while I can so when I
cannot I will not wish I would have when
I could have and all that mean to me is
just don't have any regrets all right
one big lesson I'm reminded of by Grady
is no matter how famous or successful
you get stay humble stay hungry never
get too big for your britches keep
shining Grady thanks for spending time
