Local Decision Matrix

Decision Matrix Project Evaluating Air Pollution Reduction Measures With limited financial and human resources, there is a need for municipalities to be strategic in selecting air pollution reduction activities.

Local Air Quality Modeling CALPUFF Emissions Meteorology Receptors Concentrations

Climate in Focus brings together CAP's climate projects Annual mean temperatures projected to rise 4 - 6° C by 2085 Source: Hadley Centre - Met Office (UK)

Other Areas Being Explored Green Buildings Wind-generated electricity Heat-Alert Programs Wood-burning fireplaces Enhancing Energy Efficiency

Why Undertake These Activities? Air pollution and Climate Change are Public Health Issues

Opportunities to Take Action Building on Existing Programs

Opportunities for Collaboration

How Can We Work Together? 1.How can the work we are doing be useful to other public health units or municipalities ? 2. What can we do to make our work or our processes more inclusive ?

Thank You ! Eva Ligeti, Executive Director, Clean Air Partnership
