The California Air Resources Board has compiled a huge list of websites for anyone interested in air pollution, air quality, smog, and just about anything to do with keeping the air clean for breathing.
Ed Wong, from the board’s Office of the Ombudsman/Air Quality Education Program in Sacramento, distributed his list to participants at the California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom state conference last month, then forwarded it on in an e-mail for publication in this blog.
