Help clear the air
Walk and bike more. When weather and air quality conditions are favorable, considering walking or biking for short trips around town.
Choices we make every day affect our air quality and the health of our region. The way we commute, the time we spend idling our cars and even the temperature setting in our homes can all impact the amount of ozone forming emissions generated on any given day. While the negative effects of air pollution are far-reaching, there are a wealth of steps we can take as a community to help reduce emissions and improve our region’s air quality.
