Community Walk for Air Quality Awareness

This interactive event offers residents an opportunity to learn more about local air quality while engaging directly with DOEE experts. During the walk, DOEE staff, including air quality managers, inspectors, and technical personnel, will demonstrate the use of handheld air quality monitors and a nasal ranger, a specialized device used to measure ambient odor strength. Participants are encouraged to ask questions, share concerns, and gain a deeper understanding of how air quality is monitored and managed in their community.

Event Details:

The walk will begin at the Rhode Island Avenue Metro Station. From there, participants will travel along Rhode Island Avenue, continue down 5th Street NE, and return via the Metropolitan Branch Trail back to the Metro station.

Who Should Attend:

Whether you’re interested in environmental health, curious about air quality monitoring tools, or simply want to connect with your community, this walk offers a unique and informative experience.
