EPA and Google Earth Teaming Up on Air Quality Info

The Environmental Protection Agency and Google are making it easier to access up-to-date air quality conditions. From the news release:

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s real time scientific air quality information is now available on Google Earth. The information tool accesses the AIRNow database hourly so that the Air Quality Index displays the most current air quality conditions. Public health officials, media outlets and the general public can now view timely air quality information, by city, on Google Earth.

For more info and instructions on how to use AIRNow in Google Earth click here.
