Wilmington Earth Day

2011 Theme:
"Clear the Air"

Wilmington is on the verge of being designated nonattainment for Sulfur Dioxide. This is due to the Environmental Protection Agency recently lowering the standard.  If this were to happen, New Hanover County would be the only county in North Carolina to be in nonattainment.  The same may also happen in the future for ozone.  The Earth Day Alliance thought this would be a good opportunity to bring attention to this important issue.
