By Jacob Simas Verified| Richmondside Verified Since Richmondside launched last June, we’ve been reporting in depth on air quality and related issues in the city. We’ve investigated and mapped Richmond’s major pollution sources, spoken to local doctors about community health impacts, profiled organizations working to offset carbon emissions by planting trees, and published a bilingual resource guide for people concerned or impacted by air pollution, among other articles.
