Bobcats, backhoes, and bulldozers…oh my! Construction activity is a part of our everyday lives. Diesel construction equipment is essential to creating new structures for our students, employees, and the public. But dirty equipment pollutes the air and creates hazardous conditions for workers and nearby communities. The good news? Technology and strategies exist and are being employed in many places to help minimize diesel pollution and the health risks to your students, employees, and the general public. Learn what your institution or company can do to minimize diesel pollution and create a healthier environment to live, work, and play in.
Learn from our panel of local experts representing Chatham University, Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy, Allegheny County Health Department, Sota Construction, PJ Dick, UPMC, and others about what is being done locally to minimize diesel emissions.
