Because air pollution does not stop at national borders, many countries are both sources and receptors for transboundary air pollution. Transboundary flows of pollutants occur between the United States and our closest neighbors, Mexico and Canada, as well as between North America and other continents. A variety of international efforts are underway to deal with the transboundary effects of air pollution.
