In 2010, Tennessee ranked 11th for industrial toxic air pollution caused by coal-based power generation by the National Resources Defense Council. wind-blown pesticides and dust from agricultural fields.boats and ships on the Cumberland River.resuspended dust during construction and road repair.diesel exhaust from construction equipment, commercial trucks, and railway trains.the daily transit of nearly 700,000 residents via motor vehicles.Major pollution sources in Nashville include: 2 Its environment is shaped by both its urban center and agricultural surroundings. Nashville is the capital and most populous city of Tennessee. Observe the health recommendations when Nashville air pollution exceeds or is anticipated to exceed “good” standards. Importantly, area emission sources can cause very high, localized spikes that can induce adverse health effects and trigger asthma attacks, even when city-wide pollution levels are deemed safe.įollow Nashville’s real-time air quality index (AQI) levels on this page or with the IQAir-AirVisual mobile app to be notified when pollution levels reach dangerous levels. In March 2021, Nashville experienced PM2.5 readings as high as 42 μg/m 3 (nearly 4 times the WHO’s annual PM2.5 target, and 2 times higher than its daily PM2.5 target).

EPA standards, the capital city is not impervious to pollution spikes that can jeopardize the health of residents. While Nashville air quality may be deemed acceptable based on key U.S. * Above the World Health Organization target for average annual PM2.5 of 10 μg/m 3 Goodlettsville air quality:12.0 μg/m 3 *.Still, the capital city is not the most polluted city in Tennessee rather it falls 7th in the state behind: Relatively speaking, Nashville ranked as the 387th most polluted city in the United States (out of 1518 cities) in 2019, thus falling within the top 25 percentile of polluted U.S. Moreover, during the most recent 2017 to 2019 monitoring period, levels for both annual PM2.5 and daily ozone remained near the governing threshold, indicating that increased emissions from population growth or climate-change derived wildfires could cause Nashville air quality to exceed federal standards in the future. It wasn’t until 2007 that Nashville finally met short-term and annual PM2.5 standards, and 2013 that Nashville met ozone standards. 1 The capital city of Tennessee, however, has not always met these standards. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) most rigorous air pollution standards: short-term ozone, short-term PM2.5, and annual PM2.5. Nashville, Tennessee air quality varies depending on the time of year, the examined air pollutant, and the applied air pollutant standard.
