Breathing polluted air can seriously harm your health and even shorten your life. For 10 years, the American Lung Association has used data from state air quality monitors to produce its annual State of the Air report. The more you learn about the air you breathe, the more you can protect your health and take steps to make our cleaner and healthier.



FACT: Only one city—Fargo, N.D.—ranked among the cleanest in all three air pollution categories covered in State of the Air.
