  • Honoring Air Quality Achievements
    Honoring Air Quality Achievements February 21, 2019 CalEPA Headquarters Sacramento, California The Haagen-Smit Clean Air Awards are given annually to scientists, policy makers, community leaders, and educators from California and around the world who have made significant lifetime contributions to the advancement of clean air and climate change science, technology, and policy. “We should have learned by now that we cannot hope to change the laws of nature, but we can change human institutions. The road is not an easy one, but the reward … is worth the effort.” – DR. ARIE HaaGEN-SMIT Dr. Arie Haagen-Smit Dr. Arie Haagen-Smit, a native of the Netherlands, was a leader in developing air quality standards based on his research efforts. Known by many as the “father of air pollution control,” Dr. Haagen- Smit was a graduate of the University of Utrecht and a biochemistry professor at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in Pasadena for 16 years before beginning his air pollution research in 1948. At Caltech, Dr. Haagen-Smit studied the physiological aspects of natural products like rubber and pineapples. This work led to studies with his colleagues investigating the flavor components of wine, onions and garlic. His training and expertise in chemistry, along with his natural curiosity, brought him to the forefront of air pollution research when he was asked by the county of Los Angeles to investigate the chemical nature of what we now call smog. Noticeably different from earlier accounts of haze and dust in London, which was caused by coal, the eye-irritating haze in Los Angeles was brown and almost odorless.
