Abstract
The city that never sleeps, a vibrant tapestry of dense neighborhoods and relentless energy, has long grappled with the pervasive challenge of air pollution, as the very dynamism that defines the city—its traffic, buildings, and industry—contributes to ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ground-level ozone (O3), pollutants known to exact a heavy toll on public health [1-3]. An extended analysis of environmental health data from 2005 to 2019, meticulously compiled by the town Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), offers a crucial lens through which to view the city's journey, a narrative marked by significant public health victories interwoven with stark, persistent environmental injustices [4]. This fifteen-year period reveals not just the efficacy of targeted interventions but also the deeply entrenched disparities that continue to leave vulnerable communities uneasy, and thus, the aforementioned challenge provides a very important lesson for addressing similar problems around the globe, especially in crowded urban areas.
