fr business times:
The NEA believes these targets will enable Singapore to achieve a high standard of public health and economic competitiveness.
Singaporeans can look forward to healthier lungs and clearer skies in the years ahead as the National Environment Agency (NEA) announced today a suite of measures to achieve higher national air quality standards by 2020.
The Ministry of Environment and Water Resources (MEWR) will adopt the World Health Organisation's (WHO) Air Quality Guidelines (AQG) for particulate matter 10 (PM10), Nitrogen Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide and Ozone, and the WHO AQG's Interim Targets for PM2.5 and Sulphur Dioxide, as Singapore's air quality targets for 2020.
The NEA believes these targets will enable Singapore to achieve a high standard of public health and economic competitiveness.
Like many other major cities, emissions from industries and motor vehicles are the two key sources of air pollution domestically. Transboundary smoke haze from land and forest fires in the region is also a problem which affects Singapore's air quality intermittently during the South West Monsoon period from August to October.
