Poor air quality across South Jersey and Camden County is a silent killer and triggers tens of thousands of asthma attacks for residents suffering from respiratory ailments. Our air quality is worse in our more urban inner suburbs and Camden City, especially because of the prevalence of highways and the smog pollution triggered by our cars and trucks. By collaborating with state agencies, county and municipal governments, schools, hospitals, businesses, regional planning boards, and community-based partners, our hope is to improve regional air quality and enhance better health outcomes while continuing to improve our annual grades reported by the American Lung Association.

Key focus areas include Fleet Electrification & Charging Infrastructure, Solid Waste & Recycling Operations, Regional Engagement, Green Spaces, Building Electrification, and Finance & Funding Mechanisms.
