A thriving environment is vital to our way of life, economy, and the prosperity of future generations. Clean air and water are essential to support sustainable agriculture, outdoor recreation, and the overall health of our communities.
Air Pollution
Air pollution data is collected by the Centers for Disease Control and reported by County Health Rankings. Air pollution is reported as particulate matter in the air. The number reported is a density.
Environmental Issues
In a representative survey of EIPH residents, respondents were asked what they think the most pressing environmental issue is in their community. The top responses vary by county but tended to either be wildfires, loss of water, or climate change. Details can be found in the linked dashboard.
