Don't transfer the ox's load to the cow

Slogan 34 — after a study by Jason G. Su, UC Berkeley School of Public Health

Eight hundred and fifty monitoring stations.
Weather and traffic reports
from 2012 to 2019.

Daily air pollution maps
for Fresno, Los Angeles, Sacramento.

A nearly block-by-block picture.

Situated far from Kept away from
high-income neighborhoods.
Freeways, ports, railyards.

The lower-income areas saw the biggest decline
because they had the most pollution to begin with.

Collected as little as once a year —
from monitoring stations
that are miles away from people's homes.

They don't put rail yards in Piedmont.

Whose lungs were the first monitors?
