Your local transportation management association can help you find ways to travel that improve air quality and save time and money.
Give New York a Breath of Fresh Air!
Did you know that making a few small changes to your travel routine could make a big difference in our air quality? It’s true. Motor vehicles are one of the largest sources of air pollution in the New York metro area and contribute to days when the air is unhealthy.
Clean Air NYis here to give you good news: There are many simple, everyday actions that we can all take to improve air quality.
For instance, you could combine several errands into one trip, carpool with your buddies to your next ball game, catch the train to your new job once a week or take the subway to see the latest Broadway show.
To learn more about everyday actions to improve air quality, explore our Web site. Then sign up to receive Air Quality Action Day Bulletins and become part of Clean Air NY. Everybody is invited to join us, including individuals and organizations, such as private and nonprofit employers and community groups.
These New Yorkers posed for our camera at a few recent local events and festivals and learned about the simple steps they can take to improve air quality. Over the next few months, Clean Air NY is traveling to additional events and festivals in the New York metro area where you too can pose for our cameras and show us what makes you uniquely NY.
