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.
