A new study from the Univ of Illinois’ Institute of Government and Public Policy says that a warming climate will likely lead to declining air quality.

Julian Reif (Rife) says the major issue is ground level ozone which forms in the presence of auto and power generation facilities in presence of increased temperatures. The good news is downstate Illinois will likely not be impacted.

A google search for the Illinois Institute of Government and Public Policy will take you to a host of University studies on economic and environmental issues facing Illinois.
