Act Now, Breath Later: Stories from the Block

Air pollution is an issue that affects all of us, but it continues to be an issue that affects low income communities and communities of color in a disproportionate way. Why? Because many of these communities are near large freeways, and next to one, two or even more pollution creating factories. We think this is a story worth telling and we want you to help us tell it. Through out the fall, we'll be asking you to submit your story, and help us paint the picture of the environmental and health issues arising from pollution, and to tell the story of what you, your neighbors and your community are doing about them.

You can send an email, capture a video or take a picture, and we'll highlight it on the Green The Block blog and with media partners!
