From krqe.com -A new report shows Santa Fe has the cleanest air in the nation but Las Cruces has joined the 25 worst-polluted cities. Santa Fe came in with the purest air in all three categories of the yearly American Lung Association report released Wednesday. The categories include particle pollution, short-term particle pollution and ozone pollution. Albuquerque made the list of the 25 cleanest cities for both short-term and annual particle pollution.

Wow. According to the American Lung Association website http://www.stateoftheair.org/2012/states/new-mexico/

the air quality in San Juan County, home of the Four Corners and San Juan coal-fired power plants, is much better than the air quality in Dona Ana county, home of no coal-fired power plants.

Maybe these Dona Ana results have absolutely nothing to do with industrial and vehicular sources, and everything to do with blowing dust from the west?
