Providing a platform for people, issues and ideas can inspire others to create solutions. That is the power of journalism and to be able to do that now on a national level is an incredible honor.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says as many as 60 million Americans a year are impacted by allergies, and experts say those seasonal allergies are getting less seasonal.

Just in time for the sniffling to begin this spring, the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of America just released their annual report of which cities will be the most allergy-challenged this year. While allergies will impact each area of the country differently, Mendez says climate change is the factor making it worse for everyone, including making asthma symptoms more severe. Mendez says over 10 people die every day from asthma, and allergies can be a trigger for an attack. "We always see a rise in ER visits, hospitalizations this time of year due to asthma attacks," she said.
