2020 State Of The Air Report Finds Increase In Ozone And Particle Pollution

On an annual basis, the American Lung Association releases its State of the Air report. On April 21, the 2020 version was made public. The report found an increase from 2016 to 2018 in both ozone and particle pollution all across the country — including Maricopa County.

To learn more about these findings, and how COVID-19 may impact the numbers seen for 2020, The Show spoke with Will Barrett, the American Lung Association’s Director of Clean Air Advocacy.
