As we close out another successful #CAPOzoneAction month, we want to take a moment to thank our sponsors.💚 Because of you, we were able to host meaningful #OzoneAction events and spark interest around #CleanAir initiatives in #DC, MD & #VA. Your support makes a difference!🌿🌎

We're forecasting good #AirQuality 💚 throughout the #Baltimore-#DC region this #LaborDayWeekend to complement gorgeous weather. 😎 Why not pop by your local farmers' market to make a local and seasonal meal? 🌽🍅 Bonus: walk or bike to get there. 🚶🏾‍♀️‍🚴🏾

You probably already know that dryers use a lot of #energy, but did you know they can release microplastics into the air?🤢 To reduce #AirPollution and extend the life of your clothes, air dry your laundry—especially polyester fabrics.🧺

#DYK the average person uses 116 gallons of water washing a car at home?😳💧 Commercial car washes use ~60% less water, which is not only great for conservation purposes, but also reduces #emissions. Plus, driving through a car wash is a lot easier!🫧🚙

When you're kind to your car, it will be kind to you (and our #AirQuality). Hard acceleration and braking can reduce gas mileage by up to 33%!🚘 By taking it easy, you'll improve #FuelEfficiency and reduce #emissions, helping to support #CleanAir.

Is your lawn growing poorly? Fall is a great time to switch from turf grass to a low-maintenance lawn alternative, like drought-tolerant ground cover.🌱 Low-impact landscaping needs less water and chemical interventions, which supports #CleanAir.💚 🌬️

We're forecasting moderate 🟨 to good 💚 #AirQuality throughout the #Baltimore-#DC region this weekend. Take advantage of the beautiful late summer weather and do your share for #CleanAir by walking,🚶🏾‍♀️ biking 🚴🏾 or scooting 🛴 to your weekend plans.

Vampires are real... #energy vampires, that is.🧛🏻⚡️ Even when you're not using them, electronics connected to a power source can still draw energy, leading to higher utility bills and #emissions. Reduce your #CarbonFootprint by unplugging what's not in use.👍

One of the easiest ways to improve #AirQuality is to leave your car at home. #CarFreeDay on 9/22 is a chance to do just that. If you ditch your car for a physical commute—like walking or biking—you'll save gas, reduce #emissions & improve your wellbeing.👏

Trees and #CleanAir go hand-in-hand.🤝 Did you know trees: 🌳 Help filter #pollutants out of the air 🌳 Reduce air temp and #AirPollution concentrations 🌳 Provide shade, reducing home cooling costs So grab a shovel and plant a tree this fall!

We're forecasting good 💚 #AirQuality throughout the #DC-#Bmore region all weekend long - it's a great time to get out in the garden. 🪴 Many native plants thrive when planted in fall, & they reduce air pollution while requiring less fertilizer, pesticides, & water.

We all love a good campfire, but do you know how to build one that burns clean?🔥🪵 Take these steps to reduce #AirPollution: ✔ Burn clean, dry, seasoned wood ✔ Get it hot to eat up carbon monoxide ✔ Keep fire 3' across or smaller ✔ Never burn trash

Gas-powered vehicles are the #1 way most people contribute to #ClimateChange. If you're in the market for a new ride, take advantage of National #DriveElectric Month—which goes through October 12th—and choose an #EV. #NDEM2025 🚙⚡️

Here's the dirty truth about #driving: drivers are exposed to more #AirPollution than cyclists or pedestrians, even if you personally drive electric.😷 In celebration of #PedestrianSafetyMonth and #WALKtober, try walking around town instead.🚶👍

#DYK ~83% of #Halloween costumes use non-recyclable, oil-based plastic? And in the U.S., roughly 35 million costumes are trashed annually.😱 Instead of contributing to landfill waste and #pollution, go retro and thrift your costume this year.🕺

#DYK gas garden equipment produces up to 5% of the nation's #AirPollution?🤢 If you plan to remove leaves from your lawn this season, skip the leaf blower and grab a rake instead.🍁 And if you prefer to stick to a blower, go electric.⚡️

Our interactive #BackyardBubble demonstrates how lawn tools and other backyard appliances impact #AirQuality. Don't miss your chance to see it in action and enter to win green lawn equipment at the Fairfax County Environmental & Energy Coordination #ClimateAction Conference.🫧 #CleanAirPartners

#DYK a well-maintained furnace uses less #energy and reduces #emissions? In preparation for colder weather, it's time to schedule a tune-up!👍

Got a plan for your pumpkins after #Halloween?🎃 1.3B lbs of pumpkins go to landfills annually, releasing #methane as they rot. To reduce #AirPollution, compost or donate unpainted pumpkins to a zoo or farm instead! The animals—and your lungs—will be grateful.

Want to keep your #energy bill low, your home warm and the air clean this fall? Inspect your home for drafts or cold spots and caulk, weatherproof or upgrade insulation for any areas letting cold air in.🥶
