Together, we can make a difference to improve air quality for everyone in Arizona.
Meet our Arizona Air Quality Mascot — Ari!
Ari's color is linked to the Air Quality Index (AQI) and changes based on the current AQI | Learn More >
When Ari's color is:
- Green — air quality is good
- Yellow — air quality is fair
- Orange — air quality is unhealthy for sensitive groups (such as children and people with asthma)
- Red — air quality is unhealthy for everyone and outdoor exertion should be limited.
