Protect the environment and improve the lives of locals -- the goals of ecotourism are ambitious. The west African state of Benin is also tapping into the expanding market, with the help of non-governmental organisations.

AirAlert - Spare The Air Tomorrow [Thursday - May 15]
Tomorrow, Thursday, May 15, is a Spare the Air Day in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Public transit is NOT free tomorrow. The public is encouraged to work at home, take transit, or carpool.
Concentrations of ground-level ozone pollution are forecast to be unhealthy tomorrow. Clear skies, hot temperatures, and light winds will combine to produce poor air quality for the Bay Area.
To help prevent smog tomorrow, please:
- Ride a bike – tomorrow is Bike to Work Day.
- Take public transportation, carpool or link your errands to minimize driving.
- Raise the thermostat to minimize use of your air conditioner to reduce power usage and pollution.
To plan your commute online, visit 511.org.
To monitor current air quality conditions, visit www.sparetheair.org.
This is the first Spare the Air ozone advisory issued in 2008. A new, more stringent, federal standard for ozone begins May 27 and will likely result in more Spare the Air advisories this summer and calls for the public to make clean air choices every day.
This AirAlert is provided by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. Thank you for doing your part to Spare the Air!
The AirAlert registration page may be temporarily down for the next 24 hours due to maintenance. We apologize for any inconvenience. You can reach us with any questions at sparetheair@baaqmd.gov.
