Report: Atlanta air quality improves, but still lags behind many metropolitan areas

A new American Lung Association report says the air quality in the U.S. and metro Atlanta is getting better. However, Atlanta continues to lag behind many other cities.

The report ranked the metropolitan area the 25^th worst for the number of high ozone days. But American Lung Association state director June Dean says the ranking is slightly better than last year.

“We know that  improving and strengthening the Clean Air Act is making a difference for us, and here’s the proof.”
