GV Wire | California lawmakers quietly killed “Leno’s Law,” a bill to exempt classic cars from smog checks, after environmental groups and regulators warned it would undermine air quality goals and cost the state millions.

ScienceDirect.com | Researchers developed an Adaptive Hypergraph-based Convolution Network with Dual Spatiotemporal Attention (AHCN-DA) that significantly improves PM2.5 forecasting accuracy by dynamically modeling complex spatial and temporal pollution interactions.

Family Handyman | A UCLA study finds that electric vehicle fast-charging stations emit unexpectedly high levels of fine particulate matter, raising local air quality concerns linked to charger cooling systems.

RTE | As worsening wildfires and heat drive U.S. air pollution higher, experts warn that sweeping regulatory rollbacks and reduced monitoring under the Trump administration threaten to undo decades of clean-air progress and deepen environmental injustices.

PubMed | Researchers have developed GEE-MEGAN, a satellite-driven, cloud-native model that improves fine-scale estimates of biogenic volatile organic compound emissions, revealing up to 25-fold higher urban levels and sharper accuracy in human-impacted ecosystems.

AZoCleantech | A new industry eBook from Thermo Fisher Scientific highlights cutting-edge advances in clean technology—from renewable hydrogen and carbon capture to EV trends and sustainable materials—positioning innovation as key to building a greener future.

The New Indian Express | Air pollution now cuts the average Indian’s life expectancy by 3.5 years, surpassing the toll of malnutrition and unsafe water, with residents of Delhi-NCR facing losses of more than eight years due to extreme PM2.5 levels, according to new University of Chicago data.

Insurance Journal | Canada’s unprecedented 2023 wildfire season drove particulate pollution to levels not seen in over a decade across North America, erasing years of clean-air progress and underscoring how fossil fuel–driven climate change is amplifying health risks worldwide.

Surfrider Foundation | A new UCSD and SDSU study finds that sewage-driven hydrogen sulfide emissions in the Tijuana River Valley have created dangerous nighttime air pollution levels in South San Diego, posing severe health risks for nearby communities until emergency water diversions reduced exposures by 95%.

Georgia State University News | A new Nature Communications study shows that droughts in Latin America force a shift from hydropower to fossil fuel plants, driving spikes in PM₂.₅ pollution that cause up to 10,600 premature deaths annually—costs expected to rise sharply without clean energy storage and targeted plant retirements.
