Step 2

Plan solutions to your city’s air quality challenges

This step helps cities find the resources they need to move from understanding pollution sources and health impacts to identifying evidence-based solutions and putting them into action. Cities can also find case studies and resources here that highlight best practices for anticipating common challenges and engaging stakeholders — especially most affected groups.

Cities use a wide range of time-tested clean air policy solutions even as they continue to invent new ones. There are two main solution types: those that aim to cut pollution at the source and those that focus on reducing people’s exposure to pollution. By using both of these solution types together, cities can deliver immediate health benefits while making progress toward long-term air quality goals.
