Wisconsin Carbon Monoxide (CO) Emissions

Health Effects

Carbon monoxide (CO), a criteria pollutant, is a colorless, odorless gas that is emitted by both natural processes and human activity. Although CO exists as a trace constituent of the troposphere, much of human CO exposure that results in elevated levels in the blood is due to incomplete fossil fuel combustion. Please read the go to the USEPA web site to read more health information on CO.  [exit DNR]
