A new air quality report reveals that Pennsylvania still fails to meet health-based pollution standards. Many counties received failing grades for ozone and fine particulate matter. Although there have been improvements, millions of residents continue to breathe unhealthy air. The report calls for stronger regulations, more monitoring, and investment in clean energy and transportation to reduce pollution. PennFuture urges policymakers to prioritize air quality protections, invest in renewable energy, and tighten permitting to protect public health.
