Mission Statement
Breathe Utah improves the air we all breathe through education, collaboration, and policy.
About This Cause
Utah experiences acute episodes of air pollution. Breathe Utah builds long-term solutions to air quality through education and collaboration. School kids learn essential, science-based air quality lessons through Breathe Utah's K-12 education program. Presentations to classrooms include demonstrations and problem-solving so students learn where air pollution comes from, why it's such a problem in our region, and how they can help. Air quality lessons are also developed and taught to teachers so that they can incorporate air education into their own curricula. Both efforts lead to instruction of over 25,000 students. Education of elected officials and community leaders leads to better decisions and better policies with respect to air emissions. Breathe Utah staff serve on several state and local boards including: environmental health, air quality regulation, transportation planning, legislative advisory. Our staff build bridges as well as knowledge. Cooperation and acceptance are essential partners to scientific understanding in guiding our community to adopt practices better for the air.
