East Bay
People often think of air pollution as a Los Angeles or Central Valley program. What they fail to recognize is that communities throughout the Bay Area can experience the same challenges as those other well known regions. A combination of industrial uses that include the Port of Oakland, refineries, warehouses and freeways contribute to localized pollution.
The good news is that our collective actions help! We can lower the emissions on our freeways and improve air quality in our communities. From Fremont to Oakland to Berkely to Richmond and beyond, we’re coming together to make the East Bay a centerpiece of the clean air success story. Big thanks to our East Bay Working Group:
