Say What? CLEAN AIR MAKE MORE: Here's A Gesture

Let the Desert speak if people here in Maricopa County and people here in Mesa don't raise their raise their voices to hold the ADEQ accountable for contaminated, dirty, unhealthy air that is A RISK TO PUBLIC HEALTH.
Where we live is in chronic recurring violations of EPA federal clean air standards.
Who's protecting the environment? 
Just like local government - YOU NEED TO GET ACTIVE
Other locales and other cities can do it, while here in Arizona exposure to unhealthy air appears to be "the cost-of-doing business". . .More emails in the inbox- another two this morning - one about today and another about tomorrow . . .

PARDON ME for inserting an uncivilized, vulgar, and profane drive-by but ....the situation really demands something your MesaZona blogger can't bring himself to say in any polite to ADEQ under these circumstances:
