Nearly half of Americans live in places with failing grades for air pollution, report says.

NBC News reports: "About 46% of U.S. residents — 156 million people — lived in areas with unhealthy air quality that earned F grades from the American Lung Association for ozone or particle pollution."

CitiObs at the Dresden Nexus Conference 2025!

This week, our partner @MobileMaggie (@cwts) presented #CitiObs at #DNC2025 in Dresden, sharing how citizen science is transforming community-based environmental monitoring.

From air quality to water safety, citizen observatories are proving essential in helping communities gather reliable data to protect their health and environment.
