Chan School of Public Health found that death rates among people over 65 are higher in zip codes with more fine particulate air pollution (PM 2.5 ) than in those with lower levels of PM 2.5. Most of the country is either meeting the EPA standards now, or is expected to meet them in a few years as new power plant controls kick in.

About a third of the airborne lead particles collected at two sites in the San Francisco Bay Area came from Asia, a finding that underscores the far-flung impacts of air pollution and heralds a new way to learn more about its journey across vast distances. In fact, we can use the measurements to test and improve the models. Stephanie A.

Obama noted that last year, US oil production reached its highest level since 2003 and that for the first time in more than a decade, imported oil accounted for less than half the liquid fuel consumed. We have to discover and produce cleaner, renewable sources of energy with less of the carbon pollution that threatens our climate.
