As one of the fastest growing areas in the country, the Charlotte region has almost doubled in population since 1960, and continues to enjoy a high rate of growth. This growth brings prosperity for business and citizens, but it also presents some challenges.
Two of those challenges are air pollution and traffic congestion.


Poor air quality and traffic congestion not only impact residents of the region, they also impact business in the form of lost productivity, lower employee morale, and the possibility of more federal regulations That’s why more than 50 companies and organizations have joined Clean Air Works! as charter Partners. See which regional leaders are making cleaner air - and cleaner commutes – priorities at their work sites.


Clean Air Works!
is a project of the Regional Air Quality Board, in collaboration with the Regional Planning Alliance, the City of Charlotte, Mecklenburg County Air Quality, Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS), the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce, the Centralina Council of Governments, and the Catawba Regional Council of Governments.


In 2007, the Clean Air Works! project realized significant success in the region's fight to address air quality challenges by building on the efforts of existing partners and recruiting over 35 new partners to join us. Read a summary of
the results of our Partners' efforts, or download the full report for 2007. See the positive impact of individual and corporate efforts.
