Tracking California works to make environmental health data and information publicly-available through the development of a web-based data query system, state-of-the-art data displays, and innovative web tools and services (trackingcalifornia.org), Tracking CA worked with local partners to develop the largest community-based air monitoring network in the country which was the model for novel legislation which has enabled similar statewide monitoring. Tracking CA’s seminal report, “Agricultural Pesticide Use Near Public Schools in California” was a direct influence on the development of new regulations which protect schoolchildren from pesticide exposure.
