"Particulate Matters to Me!" has ended.

Every time you take a breath, you are breathing in much more than just air. Each time you inhale, you expose yourself to particulate matter and ozone, both of which are hazardous to your health.  While unhealthy levels of ozone only occur on hot, sunny days, particle pollution can reach unhealthy levels on hot summer days and also during cooler weather, including winter months.
