About Clean Air Week
Clean Air Month is in conjunction with Breathe Easy Month, both in May and sponsored by the American Lung Association. Breathe Easy focuses on person choices. Clean Air Month emphasizes air pollution and its relation to lung disease. Air pollution, both indoors (e.g., environmental tobacco smoke) and outdoors (e.g., ozone), is an important contributor to respiratory illnesses such as asthma. ALA recommends reducing exposure to air pollutants and home testing for specific pollutants such as radon and carbon monoxide. In addition, air quality can be improved by supporting state and local clean air regulations and making homes and workplaces smoke-free.
