Spare the Air Program
The Spare the Air Program was established by the
Bay Area Air Quality Management District to educate people
about air pollution, and to encourage them to change their behavior
to prevent it.
On this site you will find answers to frequently
asked questions about air pollution, descriptions of its health
effects, information about how various communities and employers
are working to prevent pollution, clean air tips, and a variety
of other educational resources.
In addition, the air quality forecast allows
you to keep track of air quality conditions in your region of
the Bay Area.

Wood Smoke Rebate Program
The Wood Smoke Rebate Program is now closed. We want to thank Bay Area residents for their commitment to improving air quality. In the event that funding becomes available for another round of rebates, we will post information on the page linked above.
