I am writing in response to your article "Toxic Utah: Mending toxic Utah." I was surprised to find out that the air in Utah has been cleaner than it has been in decades.
The water is safer to drink and the lands are less polluted. I think what has been done to make today's environment better has been great.
It is important to keep it healthy, and that can be possible by working with businesses and industry to help it become even better.
