AIRNow - index for reporting daily air quality. It tells you how
clean or polluted your outdoor air is, and what associated health
effects might be a concern for you. The AQI focuses on health
effects you may experience within a few hours or days after
breathing polluted air. EPA calculates the AQI for five major air
pollutants regulated by the Clean Air Act: ground-level ozone,
particle pollution (also known as particulate matter), carbon
monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide. For each of these
pollutants, EPA has established national air quality standards to
protect public health
