The American Lung Association recently gave air quality in the Central Valley an “F” grade.

This same air causes one in six of our children to suffer from asthma. 

And, as if all of this isn't enough, we have as many as 1,300 premature deaths each year attributed to the region’s noxious air, as well as numerous emergency room visits, lost days of school and work, and other public health impacts that cost the Valley as much as $11 billion each year. 

We need solutions -- and quickly.
