Over the past decade, China has made remarkable progress in air pollution control. However, challenges still remain. Whether it is the winter smog in the north or the PM2.5 over-limit in southern cities, air pollution still affects our health and life.
This website aims to help you understand the causes, impacts, current public awareness and the actions that everyone can take regarding pollution.

What causes air pollution?

Traffic exhaust

With the rapid growth of car ownership, especially in first-tier cities, peak exhaust emissions have become an important source of urban PM2.5.

Industrial emissions

There are many heavy industrial parks around many cities, such as those for steel, cement, power plants, etc. These factories emit large amounts of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter.

Construction and Dust Emission

The rapid expansion of cities has led to a large number of construction projects. If the dust emission from construction sites is not properly handled, it will directly affect the air quality in the surrounding areas.

The impact of air pollution on us is far more serious than we can imagine.

Threats to health

• Long-term exposure to polluted air will increase the risk of developing asthma, bronchitis, and cardiovascular diseases.
• Children and the elderly are the most vulnerable groups. In some areas, children's lung function development lags significantly.

Environmental degradation

• Sulfur and nitrogen oxides in the air will form acid rain, damaging farmland and aquatic ecosystem.
• Pollution will reduce visibility and affect traffic safety.

High economic cost

• Medical expenses caused by air pollution are increasing year by year.
• The increase in pollution days affects outdoor work and tourism industries, indirectly causing a decline in productivity.

Have we really realized the severity of pollution?

Although the issue of air pollution has received widespread attention, the public's awareness still needs to be enhanced. Many citizens have insufficient understanding of professional concepts such as Air Quality Index (AQI) and PM2.5, and educational publicity is still inadequate. Topics related to smog on social media and documentaries like "Under the Dome" indicate that the media plays a crucial role in popularizing knowledge. Meanwhile, schools and communities can help cultivate environmental awareness among children through environmental protection courses and parent-child activities. By setting up interactive sessions, such as environmental protection knowledge tests and sharing of experiences related to smog, it can also stimulate public participation and sense of responsibility.
