Government sources

• The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has backgrounders on Clear Skies, The Clean Air Act and everything else you'd want to know about air.

• On October 27, 2005 the EPA released a report comparing the costs and benefits of five versions of Clean Air and Clear Skies.

Fairly nonpartisan sources

• Occupational Hazards - a how-to guide for industry and workers on health and safety - has a good backgrounder on the Clean Air Act.

• Congressional Research Service - who produce super-wonky but well-respected reports for Congress - has an overview of Clean Air issues in Congress, including Clear Skies, its alternatives and New Source Review.

• You can also read the National Academy of Science's tome on air pollution, or just check out their graphics on where pollutants come from, overall trends in growth and pollution, and areas with high air pollution.
