Air Alliance Houston and Sunnyside Community Redevelopment Organization
Air Alliance Houston and the Sunnyside Community Redevelopment Organization walked with air monitors and spoke to members and business owners to raise awareness on air quality in the neighborhood. It is our goal to generate localized data about air pollution in the Sunnyside area. As we thrive to enhance the air quality in our community, it is imperative that we embrace our local, state, and federal leaders about environmental equality for the greater good of our children and generations to come.
