Breathe Easy

The Clean Air Act that passed before Congress in 1990. It is well known that this act has improved the environment in many ways, but it has caused several visible changes that can be seen today. This act also proved to be a way to hold the American government somewhat responsible for what they are letting the people of their country get away with and in turn began to hold people responsible for their actions.

Most importantly, this act brought awareness to people about just how important the environment is. Without the Clean Air Act, emissions testing would not be mandatory and there is a chance people of America would not be as concerned with the air they breathe as they are today.

Take a look and this link and read about the changes made by the Clean Air act, 2010 marks its 40th anniversary and the reason we can all breathe easier.
