This isn't about global warming/climate change.
Last year we had well over 20 times when we exceeded ozone standards. This year we had zero...none. In fact last year was so bad that we put ourselves out for the three year average. This year we were so good that all five sampling stations are within limits for the new three year average.
Not being on the dirty air list benefits the city in a number of ways and all of us are not facing stricter specifications at the pump, meaning a rise in prices. Everyone from consumers, to local government, to the evil oil industry has done their part. Give yourself a pat on the back and breathe easier.
