Melanie Meade believes fighting the constant pollution is an uphill battle — but a worthy one. “It’s really difficult for a community that’s always been told, ‘This is what money smells like,’” she said. triblive.com/local/2-2m-fin… @BLAC_Appalachia @GASPPgh @PennEnvironment
Right… no free pads or tampons in school! Wouldn’t want students to have their basic needs supported while learning. #PAEdFunding #PABudget

The Mother of Environmental Justice, Hazel Johnson was one of Chicago’s own justice warriors. she saw toxic waste & pollution drive asthma & cancer rates in her community. She fought back, not just locally but in national/global networks for change! instagram.com/reel/C2600WeOC…
Now let’s see what the community input process is like and HOW the money actually improves the lives of neighbors.

“We had a visitor come who is working on cleaning up coke plants around the world. She’s been to plants in China and Pakistan and Indonesia, and she said she’s never seen anything like the Clairton Coke Works: the pollution levels…the nature of the facility and the scale of it,”…
Wonder why we need to be a extra careful with local air pollution regulations? Watch this BreatheCam visual of the Mon Valley swamped by low clouds. The air is STUCK in the valley, along with the pollution from Clairton Coke Works. Footage credit: @BreatheProject @cmucreatelab
Today Coal/steel/fracking/Norfolk Southern & industrial POLLUTERS held summit in PGH to continue their heartless profiteering at our expense. Allegheny County has the highest childhood asthma rates in the country. ASTHMA’S NOT NORMAL. CANCER’s NOT normal. tinyurl.com/yhf5tm7z

Are PGH public schools really half full? PPS Board has concealed how they assess school capacity & shut us out of the process to create solutions. They seem to only have one idea to solve the budget issue: CLOSE SCHOOLS. We filed a "Right to Know": 412justice.org/ern-data/

Yinz SMELL that? H2S is elevated at @HealthAllegheny’s Liberty monitor (again). Today marks the 10th day so far this year where H2S concentrations exceeded the PA limit at that monitoring location. Still no educational outreach from ACHD. 😳
Good morning! Here is @HealthAllegheny's #airquality & dispersion forecast for today, Thursday, Feb. 8, 2024:
The particles are low in my area but the smells are intense! SO STINKY!! This bodes VERY POORLY for tonight's smell. How about your area? Experiencing stink? #Stinkburgh

#Pittsburgh - this is criminal. And preventable. We have a right to clean air, but it has been bought out by polluters. Why won’t anyone answer to this? @ACE_Innamorato @GovernorShapiro @EPAMichaelRegan @KDKA @NPRHealth @NYTHealth @EnvJustice @U_S_Steel @nipponsteel
The air is unbelievably nasty this morning. Foul and downright ugly mean stench all over. Particles, VOC’s, and H2S levels have been high. How are you doing with it? Report smells to SmellPGH and @HealthAllegheny . Oh, and we predicted this 2 days ago. Why no ACHD action?
It’s fucking appalling that no major political party will prioritise an uncollapsed society for our kids to grow up in.
I'm happy about the recent EPA soot standards, I hope it brings change. I am saddened though that our very own local leaders have not rectified this very serious issue of industrial pollution yet. That is the reality. #Pennsylvania #Pittsburgh
