February 1st – 28th. It’s the Clear the Air Challenge — ride public transportation, bike, walk, carpool, or even skip a trip to help reduce emissions from single-occupant vehicles (SOVs) throughout the month of February. Your efforts, collectively add up to improve air quality, reduce traffic congestion and conserve energy in Utah.
This winter season has been unusually warm and stormy, keeping the air clear, but don’t let it lull you into complacency. Let us keep the momentum moving forward by doubling our efforts, and continue the good work and progress made so far. Eccles Health Sciences Library continues their participation to help keep the air clear. Participation instructions below.
