Clean Air Partners


In 1997, the Baltimore Metropolitan Council and the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments co-chartered the Clean Air Partners organization. This unique public/private partnership educates residents of the Baltimore and Washington regions about the health dangers of air pollution. Clean Air Partners also promotes simple things people can do to help reduce the amount of pollutants released in our air.

As part of Clean Air Partners, BMC staff members take part in:
  • Coordinating the Baltimore region’s Air Quality Action Days Program
  • Providing communications and support to the over two hundred organizations participating in the Air Quality Action Days program
  • Recruiting new members for Clean Air Partners
  • Visiting community events and schools to promote awareness of air quality issues
  • Answering media question about air pollution
