Welcome to AirAware TX

Who We Are

AirAware TX is a citizen-powered initiative created by Texans for Texans. We're a dedicated team of data scientists and community organizers passionate about improving air quality transparency.

Our mission is to make complex air emission data accessible to everyone, regardless of technical background. We believe that informed communities are empowered communities.

What We're Solving

In Texas, industrial facilities report air emission events to comply with state regulations. These reports often detail unplanned emissions but are challenging for residents to interpret, leaving communities unaware of potential health and environmental risks.

We simplify these complex reports by providing user-friendly notifications and summaries of emission events near homes, schools, and workplaces. By leveraging real-time monitoring, machine learning, and data aggregation, we offer clear insights into when emissions occur, the chemicals involved, and their potential impacts.

Why It Matters

Air quality directly affects public health, particularly for vulnerable populations like children, elderly, and those with respiratory conditions. Understanding local emission events helps communities:

• Make informed decisions about outdoor activities
• Take preventative health measures during significant events
• Engage with local officials and facilities about environmental concerns
• Build a documented history of emissions in their area

Your right to clean air begins with your right to information.
