Letters: Expanded Spare the Air Alerts deserve Bay Area support

Each winter, fine particle pollution reaches dangerous levels, with residential wood burning responsible for up to 34% of emissions. This is a serious public health threat. Low-income families and communities of color already bear the greatest burden of polluted air, suffering higher rates of asthma and heart disease. The need for cleaner air is urgent, and limiting wood burning is a reasonable, science-based solution. Cleaner winter air means fewer emergency room visits and lives saved.
