About Take Back The Air


We are a Minneapolis-based grassroots organization, dedicated to cleaning up indoor and outdoor air pollution for better sustainability. Our focus is on the Top Neighborhood Air Polluters that invade other people's airspace without their permission, exacerbating asthma and causing a host of other health problems.

The top polluters are:
  • Wood smoke
  • Fragrances
  • Scented Laundry Products
  • Lawn Chemicals
  • Charcoal Grills
  • Lawn Mower Exhaust

Ultimate Goals

  • To encourage others to join us in spreading awareness.
  • To encourage neighbors and businesses to switch to non-toxic products that do not affect the airspace of others.
  • We are non-partisan, but are pushing for legislative changes and better regulations to protect public health.
   Our Mission

  • To fight for cleaner neighborhood air, starting right in our own backyards.
  • To spread the word about the hazards of these polluters to neighbors and neighborhood businesses.
  • To provide information on healthier alternatives.
