Obstacles & Difficulties of the PlanObstacles & Difficulties of the Plan

Motor vehicle pollution is the main factor of Motor vehicle pollution is the main factor of

air pollutionair pollution.. The emissions of exhaust gas from the The emissions of exhaust gas from the

industrial enterprises is hard to supervise.industrial enterprises is hard to supervise. Dust pollution is difficult to controlDust pollution is difficult to control ..

Key Strategies for Success of this PlanKey Strategies for Success of this Plan

The intergrated control of motor The intergrated control of motor vehicle pollution has been vehicle pollution has been strengthened.strengthened.

The no-operation zones for yellow-The no-operation zones for yellow-labeled vehicles reached 423 square labeled vehicles reached 423 square kilometers.kilometers.

The city had also handled a total of The city had also handled a total of 25600 cases of yellow-labeled 25600 cases of yellow-labeled vehicles breaking traffic laws and vehicles breaking traffic laws and regulations.regulations.

Guangzhou had also carried out Guangzhou had also carried out exhaust gas detection on 1.468 exhaust gas detection on 1.468

million vehicles.million vehicles.

Key Strategies for Success of this ProjectKey Strategies for Success of this Project

The treatment of volatile organic The treatment of volatile organic compounds has been strengthened. compounds has been strengthened. The renovation on 342 key The renovation on 342 key enterprises, under the supervision of enterprises, under the supervision of the municipal authorities, had been the municipal authorities, had been finished in the meantime.finished in the meantime.

Dust pollution prevention and Dust pollution prevention and control has been strengthened. The control has been strengthened. The key management of construction key management of construction site dust pollution , dust charging site dust pollution , dust charging policy formulation.policy formulation.

To carry out cleaner production To carry out cleaner production audit. From 2012 to 2014 , a total of audit. From 2012 to 2014 , a total of 810 companies completed the clean 810 companies completed the clean production examination, to achieve production examination, to achieve the objective of energy-saving, the objective of energy-saving, emission reduction, and the emission reduction, and the improvement of the environmental improvement of the environmental quality.quality.

Lessons & ImplicationsLessons & Implications City Hall according to the plan formulated to implement the plan,and City Hall according to the plan formulated to implement the plan,and

the task decomposition to the relevant funcitional departments,and the task decomposition to the relevant funcitional departments,and vigorously promote the implemengtation of,achieved remarkable vigorously promote the implemengtation of,achieved remarkable results. results.

But because of the further optimiztion of the energy and industrial But because of the further optimiztion of the energy and industrial structure , The ability of coordination and cooperation between the structure , The ability of coordination and cooperation between the various functional departments should be strengthenedvarious functional departments should be strengthened , and To further , and To further strengthen the environmental protection infrastructure.Atmospheric strengthen the environmental protection infrastructure.Atmospheric control work situation is still grim.control work situation is still grim.

So Air pollution control is systematic engineering, We should further So Air pollution control is systematic engineering, We should further improve the sector linkage mechannism, the optimization of the improve the sector linkage mechannism, the optimization of the industrial and energy structrue, stricit environmental acceess,continue industrial and energy structrue, stricit environmental acceess,continue to do a good job in air pollution prevention and control work.to do a good job in air pollution prevention and control work.

Spring is splendid in the Flower City. Welcome to Guangzhou. Thank you!
