Mitigating Utah's notorious inversions can have a positive impact on more than just air quality. According to local business leaders, cleaner air could improve the state's business climate as well as upgrade the environment.
Approximately 100 business leaders convened in the downtown offices of the Salt Lake Chamber to make the business and economic case for clean air.
“Part of our mission at the Chamber is to champion community prosperity,” said panel moderator Natalie Gochnour, chief economist of the Salt Lake Chamber. “Our work to clean the air does that by improving health and boosting our economy.”
