Apparently no amount of pandering to environmentalists or excessive, job-killing regulations is enough for the State of California to get it’s pollution problem under control. The air is so bad that federal health standards for air quality have only be met 3 days of the entire summer. According to a report from CBS, air pollution in Los Angeles County kills 1,300 people per year which is roughly 3x more than New York and 2x more than Texas.
The pollution in California has been so bad, that federal health standards for ozone levels have only been met three days this summer.
Experts believe, with another heat wave hitting the West Coast and sticking around through the middle of the week, air quality will continue to get worse.
And, of course, the only solution in this excessively regulated state is more regulations which will put the State one step closer in its mission to ban human inhabitants all together.
“Bad air and high levels of pollution become deadly to a society because chronically people are ingesting these particulate molecules,” said Dr. Anthony Cardillo.
Dr. Cardillo is an emergency room doctor at Glendale Adventist Medical Center. He said he has seen a rise in patients suffering from pollution — and you don’t need to be a medical expert to figure out the solution.
“If we had tighter restrictions and better control over our air quality, we would see a drop, or decline in these acute crises that people have with these underlying chronic conditions,” he said.
