Description | Ecology is working to implement a new air quality initiative aimed at expanding air quality monitoring and reducing air pollution in communities that bear a disproportionate burden of pollution. This environmental justice focus is a key part of the Climate Commitment Act, the 2021 law that establishes a cap-and-invest program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Washington. | ||||
