Hosts Needed in Lincoln Borough for Community Air Quality Monitoring Project

Here at GASP, we're dedicated to empowering communities with the tools and information they need to understand and address air pollution. That's why we're excited to announce a new community air monitoring project in Lincoln Borough.

We're looking for residents to become PurpleAir air quality monitor hosts. These small, easy-to-install sensors provide real-time data on particulate matter (PM2.5), a major air pollutant that can have serious health impacts. 

By hosting a PurpleAir monitor, you'll be directly contributing to a clearer picture of air quality in your neighborhood as part of a larger community monitoring project funded by the EPA.

Why Lincoln Borough?

Understanding local air quality variations is crucial. This project will help us identify potential hotspots and gather valuable data to advocate for cleaner air for everyone. The data collected will be used to inform community members, researchers, and policymakers.

Why Become a Host?

• Empower your community: You'll be a vital part of a project that directly impacts the health and well-being of your neighbors.

• Gain real-time insights: Access live air quality data for your area.

• Contribute to impactful research: Your data will help us understand and address air pollution in Lincoln Borough.

• It's easy! GASP will provide the PurpleAir monitor and support you through the simple installation process.

• Anonymity: All sensor locations will remain anonymous to the public.
