The Federal Clean Air Act



What is the Clean Air Act and why is it important to every one of us? The Clean Air Act is the core and the driving force for all air pollution legislation in the United States. It serves as the framework for a wide-ranging, coordinated federal and state system of regulation that affects everything from our way of life to the national economy. In fact, the Clean Air Act legislation touches nearly every private citizen and corporation in the country.

Ever wondered why the Clean Air Act was created in the first place? Do you need to know the history of the Clean Air Act for a school project? Ever thought about how energy consumption and population growth affect air pollution? Find out the answers to these and other questions in "The History of the Clean Air Act," a multimedia presentation developed by the Foundation for Clean Air Progress.
