The EPA’s estimation is that by 2030 there will be a 32% reduction compared to the level in 2005, which in return will prevent numerous asthma attacks in the American children yearly. Even though this would be a great decline, it also brings up the question of how much more carbon will we be producing in that time frame and will it average out the levels by 2030, or will the levels increase, or decrease. The chosen standard limit of 70 ppb is very restricted and will not help as much as if 60ppb was selected. If 60bbp is the safest standard then why have we not chosen that as the standard to maximize the amount of lives to save? Is this too big of a goal for the U.S.? Shouldn’t we aim high first? The Clean Air Act has definitely kick started the enhancement of the quality of the air that we breathe and in return improve
