TORONTO ENVIRONMENTAL ALLIANCE POSTS AIR QUALITY DATA RECENTLY COLLECTED IN SAM SMITH PARK

With the help of volunteers from the community, the Toronto Environmental Alliance recently collected ground-level air quality data using mobile air quality monitors in Sam Smith Park and along the nearby lake windows. All of the data they collected is now available on their website.
TEA is now looking to engage the community to talk about solutions that can help improve air quality.  If you have a moment, please complete a short survey and share your ideas and priorities for the community. This will help them focus on the issues that matter to you the most.  Click here for more information on TEA's "INHALE" project.
