Inaugural Newsletter
Keeping our Partners Informed
Now that the historic 2012 elections are in the rearview mirror and the Baltimore - Washington area successfully weathered the storm that was "Sandy" we thought the time was right to start a new feature here at Clean Air Partners. Over the course of the next few months we will be providing updates on our activities and keeping you informed of ways you can be a more active partner.
As you probably know, Clean Air Partners is an important collaborative effort focused on increasing awareness of air quality in our region. Many of you, or your businesses, benefit from our daily air quality forecasts sent by email called AirAlerts. The simple steps we promote are helping to improve our air quality and it is our hope that as a region of stakeholders we can all help to make a difference.
