This place is a wealth of information from the actual smog and its effects on the local area, to clean air in general to local information. They have looked at this event from all angles and with so many people using the information they had and adding to it.

Really interesting. 3 of our have party work as environmental engineers for past 25 years & they enjoyed it. Bonus display on Stan Musial who grew up there during the smog event that caused the Clean Air Act to be developed.

Travel through time and history to the crisis of 1948. No not the Berlin Blockade of the Cold War, I'm talk'n bout the 1948 weather inversion that led that famous Donora Smog.
