“'The control of traffic source pollution is now becoming the most obvious and urgent problem in urban air pollution control area as well as disease prevention and control in China.”
— Pan Xiaochuan,
professor at the School of Public Health, Peking University and council member of REEI,
speaking at the seminar on the launch of “REEI Energy Review 2019”
With the rise of motor vehicle ownership in China, traffic pollution is increasingly highlighted. On November 7, 2019, REEI held a seminar on the launch of 'REEI Energy Review 2019', which focused on the low emission objective of transportation. This seminar conducted targeted research and analysis from multiple perspectives, including urban sustainable transportation, the impact of traffic pollution on health, and China's low emission transportation policy. A heated public discussion on this issue is triggered after Du Caicai, a reporter from Caixin Network, participated in and reported this seminar. In this report, the author focused on the health effects of traffic exhaust, from the energy structure to social, environmental and economic factors.
