Each year, South Coast AQMD honors those who have made outstanding clean air contributions to improve the health of our communities and economy. Our air is cleaner today, and our families are healthier thanks to their work. Past awardees have made significant contributions in the areas of innovative clean air technology and leadership. From cities going above and beyond to create sustainable communities to youth campaigns that have improved the quality of life in their neighborhoods, we believe it is important to recognize those who are doing their part to help clean the air and protect our health. The awards ceremony will be held on April 5, 2024. Event details coming soon!
