The LEAP Institute is setting up a network of community air monitors in Kings and western Fresno Counties. The network of 20 air monitors will measure particulate matter, a harmful air pollutant. Five of these monitors will also measure methane, a greenhouse gas that causes climate change.
The air monitoring network is being developed with guidance from a steering committee of community residents, who is working with LEAP to select monitor sites in 14 communities.
Once all 20 monitors are installed and tested, the real-time air monitoring data will be available on this website.

Poor air quality is linked to many health problems, including asthma, cancer, heart disease, premature birth, and premature death. The LEAP Institute and partners have received funding from the California Air Resources Board to set up a network of 20 community air monitors. The network will provide local, real-time air quality information for residents to take action and protect their health from poor air quality.
From October 2018 – March 2021, the LEAP Institute will:
The real-time air monitoring data will be available on this website after the monitors are deployed and once basic quality control processes are in place. Because the community monitors are not government regulatory monitors, they will not generate data that can be used for regulatory activities, such as determining violations of the law.
The network is being developed by LEAP Institute, with technical support from Comite Civico del Valle, Central California Environmental Justice Network, and Tracking California. Funding is being provided by the California Air Resources Board - Community Air Grants (Round 1).
The LEAP Institute, formerly known as San Joaquin Valley Latino Environmental Advancement and Policy Project strives to engage San Joaquin Valley communities to increase social justice awareness.
