Make Maricopa County breathable

Posted

OPINION — My escalating respiratory and bronchial issues compel me to write this letter.

Maricopa County continues receiving an F rating from the American Lung Association. I implore my neighbors who value clean air to fill out the ALA's petition at lung.org/sota-petition. Maricopa County deserves better air. Fountain Hills deserves better air. All of us deserve better air.

Educate yourselves about the different kinds of air pollution that are accosting our community. Until the EPA cares about reversing our incrementally gradual poisoning, it's up to us to fortify our homes against particulates and sun-cooked high ozone levels.

Make Maricopa County breathable again.
