    Dallas isn't as bad as Houston. We have about 10 bad air days in the summer. I live in the older part of town where there isn't as much traffic,plus lots of trees. I noticed on the ozone map,that the busier side of town is worse. (northside) Just to many people.

    Yes you are completely right, and when I go home to see my family in Waco it is literally a breath of fresh air. I can see sheets and sheets of stars at night there and here in Houston you are lucky to see 3..... Sad, but there are pluses and minuses to ever location and situation, to each there own.

    well Mexico city from what i remember at least it had the world record of the most poluted city in the world and believe me every time i got down there i get sick just by stepping off the plane, it smells bad in most of the city and when your plane is landing you can see the thick layer of smoke that divides the blue sky and the brown smog around the city!
    still i love mexico city and its not like that in the whole city, where i live its completly blue sky and pretty lol

    Yeah, coal plants.....don't let them fool you are BAD news. They are trying their best to promote coal as the alternative energy. The pollution is unbelievable from those things. We have too many coal plants in Texas, and I think the state just passed legislation for three more.
    Peace.
