Answer:

Clean Air Act (CAA), U.S. federal law, passed in 1970 and later amended, to prevent air pollution and thereby protect the ozone layer and promote public health. The Clean Air Act (CAA) gave the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the power it needed to take effective action to fight environmental pollution.

Answer: The Clean Air Act was important because it emphasized cost-effective methods to protect the air; encouraged people to study the effects of dirty air on human health; and created a regulation that makes any activities that pollute the air illegal.
