The fires have brought tragedy, and have also caused hazardous ash and smoke pollution in the surrounding areas. As Postman has an office in San Francisco, we thought it was important to help our fellow Northern Californians and the rest of the world stay aware of the air quality in their surroundings.\n\nThis collection gets air quality updates from the AccuWeather API and posts them to Twitter according to your account and location specifications. We have also included links in the documentation to donate to local charities assisting families and emergency workers in Northern California. We hope this will help people. \n\n## Get involved\nAs the fires continue, many families in Northern California are in need of food, clothing, and additional supplies. We’ve collected a few resources for those who want to aid these communities. \n\n* [**ABC7 North Bay Take Action Resources List**](http://abc7.com/weather/how-to-help-wildfire-victims/2515175/) - ABC 7 has put together a long list of ways to take action including locations of food pantries, animal shelters, charities, supplies needed, and shelters in need of volunteers.\n\n* [**GoFundaHero - Bay Area Firefighters & Families**](http://www.gofundahero.com/campaign/detail/4913) - The Marin Professional Firefighters and Santa Rosa Firefighters have set up a GoFundaHero campaign to raise donations for the brave men and women who are putting their lives on the line to help protect those in the path of the wildfires. 100% of the donations received will go directly to the firefighters and their families.\n\n* [**The California Fire Foundation**](http://www.cafirefoundation.org/wildfires-october-2017/) - The California Fire Foundation provides critical support to surviving families of fallen firefighters and the communities they serve.\n\n## Technologies Used\n1. **Postman** - This collection utilizes [Postman Collections](https://www.getpostman.com/docs/postman/collections/creating_collections), [Postman Monitors](https://www.getpostman.com/docs/postman/monitors/intro_monitors), and [Postman Environments](https://www.getpostman.com/docs/postman/environments_and_globals/manage_environments).\n\n2. **AccuWeather API** - [AccuWeather’s API](https://developer.accuweather.com/home) allows users to obtain real weather data, including air quality data.\n\n  * **Using the AccuWeather API** - \n  To use AccuWeather’s API you will need to create an account and obtain a trial API key from their website. You can make up to 50 calls to the API per day on the trial, which should be enough to run this collection as an individual user.\n\n3. **Twitter** - We’ve chosen to use the [Twitter API](https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/getting-started)  as a platform to reach out to our community and spread the message about the state of the San Francisco air quality since the Northern California fires have started. You can configure your own Twitter account to post periodic air quality updates.\n\n  * **Using the Twitter API** - \n  To use Twitter’s API, you will need to create [a Twitter app](https://apps.twitter.com/) and get OAuth credentials.\n\n## Environment Variables\nYou need to set several environment variables before this collection will run:\n\n|Environment Variable Name |Description\n|--------------------------|--------------\n|`location`                |A string describing the location you would like to monitor\n|`accuweatherApiKey`       |An [AccuWeather API
