Background
• Clean air and climate change are central fields of EU environmental policy.
• New scientific findings demonstrate important interactions and potentially large economic synergies between air pollution control and greenhouse gas mitigation.
• Model analyses, based on latest scientific findings and validated data, can provide valuable information for cost-effective policy strategies.
• The European Commission envisages for 2011/12 a review and revisions of their air quality legislation and the European Climate Change Programme.

Objectives
• Providing scientific and economic analyes for the revision of the EU Thematic Strategy on Air and the European Climate Change Programme (ECCP)
• Improvement of existing models by including recent scientific findings.
• Update of input data
• Accceptance of modelling tools and input data by stakeholders
• Make modelling tools available to the public over the Internet.

Expected outcomes
• Policy analysis on cost-effective strategies to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in the EU with– Updated scientific insights– Improved modelling tools– Validated input data
• To support reviews of Thematic Strategy on Air Pollution and ECCP
• Interim assessment in 2008
• Final assessment in 2011
