So, what did you two do today that actually helped improve air quality in the Salt Lake Valley? (Talking about it---again---doesn't count as actually directly helping.)
I rode mass transit and packed a lunch so I didn't have to make an additional trip anywhere.

Why are you double posting an article I posted 12 hours before you?

Utah's Air Quality Board meets this Wednesday @ 1:30 pm Jan 8th for a critical vote @ 195 North 1950 West, Room 1015. The Board will vote on Dirty Herbert’s plan to not comply with federal Clean Air Act limits on fine particle pollution (PM2.5.) As you probably already know the Governor’s plan is to take money from the biggest polluters and then allow these corporations to continue and increase toxic pollution leaving all Utahns to suffer more toxic air pollution. Stand Up and Speak Out for for Clean Energy & Clean Air at the next Air Quality Board meeting at 1:30 pm, on Wednesday, January 8, 2013 at Department of Environmental Quality, 195 North 1950 West, Room 1015 (Accessible via Airport Trax line stop at 1940 W. North Temple) Red Air is not OK! Dump Dirty Herbert!

Maybe that's what happens when you don't live here to see for yourself what's going on and instead rely on (and repost) outdated, incorrect news.

I don't know where "here" is, but I was downtown and in Draper on both days, and from South Mountain I could clearly see the downtown skyline. I went for a run in Olympus Cove and could see the Great Salt Lake and breathe comfortably. And, Utah's Air Quality Index was below 50 (green/"good" air quality) for Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.

It's going to get icky again Tuesday, but we had an awesome air quality weekend this week.
