We are a group of Allegheny County residents who have coalesced a racially, economically and geographically diverse constituency of more than 1,000 people. Together we seek to transform the Pittsburgh region from one of the worst places to live in the U.S. for exposure to deadly air pollution into one that offers a healthier future for all.
