It is important that
Americans enjoy the benefits of clean air, soil, and water. According
to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), air quality in the United
States continues to improve. Since Congress passed the Clean Air Act in
1970, U.S. air pollution has been reduced by half – even though the
nation’s population and economy continue to grow. We must continue our
efforts to ensure steady improvements in air quality.
