Baltimore region gets mixed reviews in air quality report
An annual report reveals improvements and challenges in Baltimore's air quality. The American Lung Association's 25th annual "State of the Air" report released Wednesday found 131 million people -- almost 40% Americans -- lived in areas with unhealthy levels of air pollution from 2020 to 2022 -- an increase of almost 12 million since last year's report. The report provides a mixed review of the air quality in the Baltimore region. Some places got an "F" grade while other areas, such as Baltimore City, actually got their best grade ever in the smog category.
