Air Quality
-
9/19/2007
There was a time when our state was most favored because of our air quality and moderate climate. As a results, our population has tripled in the last few years.
Unfortunately, in the last 7 years our air quality has drastically been reduced to a level 1 out of a possible 10. In addition, our climate is no longer moderate with our summmers reflecting 50 + days over 110, our UV index being 8 (out of 10) and our humidity at all time highs of 80%.
Many areas of our country have four seasons; we have warm, hot and hotter.
We won't even discuss our out of control housing market since the influx of transplants in the last 7 years; or our high violent crime of 7 out of a possible 10.
People keep moving to the Valley of the Sun...my family and I are ready to leave!
