Your local air quality affects how you live and breathe. Like the weather, it can change from day to day, or even hour to hour. Up-to-date information allows you to make decisions based on forecasted air quality. EnviroFlash comes to you, notifying you about air quality—you don’t have to go searching for it.

EnviroFlash is a new program, sponsored by the EPA with state and local air quality agencies. EnviroFlash provides important air quality information such as forecasts and action day notifications via email or pager. The email includes the same local, air quality forecast information which is coordinated through the news media, like television and radio.

EnviroFlash gives you instant information that you can customize for your own needs, allowing you to protect your health and that of your family. Air quality information allows you to adjust your lifestyle when necessary on unhealthy air quality days. EnviroFlash is especially helpful for people with sensitivities, such as the young, people with asthma, and the elderly.
