Lest you forget people still show up for work to produce as I described, bigly. My city is on the shores of Lake Michigan and prevailing winds keep it from cracking the 'worst' lists.

See some red state cities among the ones listed?

As usual, it's an issue a little to complex for one inclined to simplistic assertions and conclusion jumping.

Many cities, especially eastern ones, have cleaned up their acts, "thanks to cleaner diesel fleets and cleaner fuels," the study found.

But some of the worst days for air quality have occurred in recent years due to climate change that creates "situations ripe for" pollution, according to the report.

The current drought in California, attributed to climate change, has triggered a spike in days thick with soot and dirt, according to another study released earlier this month.

"Continued progress cleaning up pollution makes a difference, but a changing climate is making it harder to protect human health," the lung association's report found.

Pollution can take a significant health toll, shortening lives and bringing on asthma attacks, heart attacks, strokes and lung cancer, research has shown.
