Large wildfires and severe heat events are happening more often at the same time, worsening air pollution across the western United States, a study led by Washington State University researchers has found.

Climate change and air pollution are two major societal problems. 

Dairy farmers in the Northeast — facing a warming climate that exacerbates nutrient pollution but lengthens the growing season — can reduce the environmental impact of their operations and maximize revenues by double cropping and injecting manure into the soil, rather than broadcasting it.

Researchers could show a clear correlation between the level of air pollutants and the concentration of pollutants in the leaves.

When snow and ice melt, road salt goes with them, washing into lakes, streams, wetlands and groundwater.
