We are all responsible for taking care of our air. Nova Scotia Environment (NSE) strives to monitor and protect our outdoor air quality through regulations and programs to reduce pollutants that lead to issues like smog, acid rain, climate change, and the thinning ozone layer. Poor air quality can affect our health, lead to increased health care costs and also affect natural resources.
