Clean Air for Life
Air pollution harms health, damages forests and lakes, and lowers our quality of life. More than half of all Americans live in areas that don't meet clean-air standards.
Our team is working to change that by cleaning up dirty diesel engines and polluting power plants.
Heating Fuel
Cleaning Our Air
Dirty heating oil is a surprisingly big cause of air pollution in New York City. Our report and interactive map show what buildings are burning dirty oil and how they can convert to cleaner fuel.
Transportation

We're leading a campaign to reduce school bus pollution so children can breathe safely on their ride to school.
