Let's Protect our Blue Skies and the Air we Breathe
"We've
got a clean-air problem in Tennessee. We need to face that."
"A majority of Tennesseans live in counties that will soon be in
violation of the federal clean air standards. We have a short
period of time during the next several years to meet these standards."
Senator
Lamar Alexander on clean air
"So let's leave some blue up above us
Let's leave some green on the ground
It's only ours to borrow, let's save some for tomorrow
Leave it and pass it on down"

"The air is precious...for
all things share the same breath - the animals, the trees, the man...
the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports"
