Be Aware of Your Air: A New Interactive Tool to Explore Air Quality in North Carolina

Heather Murphy, Environmental Program Consultant, Division of Air Quality, Ambient Monitoring Section, NC Department of Environmental Quality

Have you ever wondered what the air quality is like where you are or how it changes over time? Join Heather Murphy of NC’s Division of Air Quality (DAQ) as she proudly introduces the new Ambient Information Reporter (AIR) tool. This new resource is the product of a joint project between the State Climate Office and DAQ and is meant to be a “one-stop shop” for anyone interested in air quality and meteorological information in NC. Find out how to navigate the tool, all the features available, how DAQ gets its air quality data, and why it’s important to know what’s happening with the air around you.
