Sacramento Bee Notes Climate Change Institute Web Tool

California’s Sacramento Bee newspaper carried a news release about the new “10Green” interactive web tool designed by the University of Maine Climate Change Institute to provide 10 air quality measures of pollutants such as carbon monoxide, large and small particulates, ozone, sulfur dioxide and heavy metals. Institute Director Paul Mayewski said in an interview that 10Green utilizes years of ice core and climate change research to enable users to gauge air quality in various locales.
