Like the title says this article talked about the top 10 most polluted cities. Not surprisingly LA making the list at number 5. Over half of the cities being in California, 7 out of 10 to be exact. Air pollution is a huge problem over there. Most of the states on this list are actually located out west, according to the article cities on the East Coast are doing their best to improve the quality of air. Most areas were there is a problem are low income and mostly affect people of color/minorities. Unfortunately this is a huge problem because bad air quality causes millions of deaths all over the world and needs to be fixed as soon as possible. If each city does there best to make a change this can be stopped.
