Today, the rivers around Manhattan are so clean that I swim in them. It's good that we forced industry to stop polluting the air. Scrubbers in smokestacks and catalytic converters on cars made our lives better.
The air gets cleaner every time someone replaces an old car with a new one. But those were measures against real pollution -- soot, particulates, sulfur, etc.
