Wednesday, September 28, 2011 is a Spare the Air Day in the San Francisco Bay Area. Concentrations of ground-level ozone pollution are forecast to be unhealthy on this day. Hot temperatures and light winds will combine to produce poor air quality for the Bay Area.
To help prevent smog, please:
- Carpool or vanpool with friends or co-workers
- Take public transportation
- Telecommute -- work from home instead of driving to work
- Link necessary trips and postpone errands if possible
