Gov. Gary Herbert boasted a successful trade mission to Mexico in April, which included a clean air highlight. Once touted as one of the most polluted cities in the world, Mexico City has cut its pollution in half in the face of a growing population.
Our inversion season is right around the corner. (Remember it came early last year.) I'm still waiting to hear what our governor learned and what changes he plans to implement.
Having a family member who has yet to recover from a neurological event that surfaced during our last inversion season, coupled with mounting medical bills, I think it only fair that if the governor plans to do nothing, he should at least direct his ailing constituents to move to higher ground and lend a new meaning to "Life Elevated."
