What a great time at #AGU24 last week! It was great to share a preview of my next dissertation chapter and to connect with many inspiring folks in the field

Campus researchers have discovered consistent racial disparities in exposure to PM2.5 — fine particulate matter in the air — from cars, trucks and other vehicles, despite an average reduction in exposure to vehicle air pollution in California dailycal.org/news/campus/res…

California has dramatically improved its air quality, but racial disparities persist, study finds

A group of researchers measured exposure to vehicle air pollution in California and examined which populations were most exposed from 2000 to 2019, in a collaboration between UC Berkeley, University

Really excited to share that the first chapter of my dissertation was published in @ScienceAdvances today! 🎉 It’s available at the link below, and I’m going to share a few key insights here (1/) Link: science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

PM2.5 exposure disparities persist despite strict vehicle emissions controls in California

Decades of California’s strict exhaust emissions controls reduced PM2.5 exposure but not relative racial-ethnic disparity.

California has dramatically improved its air quality, but racial disparities persist - Berkeley News

The state’s aggressive emissions policies have reduced exposure to PM2.5 air pollution by 65% since 2000, but low-income communities of color still breathe the dirtiest air.

CA reduced PM2.5 pollution from vehicles by 65% over two decades, good news for public health. Yet benefits are not enjoyed equally, a new study from @joshapte et al. reports. "The challenge remains that the most polluted are still the most polluted.” insideclimatenews.org/news/1…

California Slashed Harmful Vehicle Emissions, but People of Color and Overburdened Communities...

New research shows a nearly threefold reduction in exposure to particulate pollution, but Californians living in overburdened communities remain disproportionately exposed.
