Company founded
1969
The Group Against Smog and Pollution (GASP) was founded in 1969 by a group of 43 volunteers concerned about air quality issues in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Over the years, GASP has maintained a continuous program to educate the public on questions of pollution and its remediation. It has long published its quarterly newsletter, Hotline. It has participated in public meetings and organized its own, provided a Speakers Bureau, given statements to the media, written letters to the press, and conducted training sessions in local secondary schools with an educational air quality monitor.
