Abstract

Ceiling values for each of the eight main pollutants responsible for air pollution in the UK have been established as part of the Government's National Air Quality Strategy. The strategy tackles the three main sources of the pollutants, vehicle fumes, energy generation and industrial processes. Cleaner fuels and cleaner exhaust systems will help reduce pollution from vehicle fumes but a range of more environmentally sustainable travel choices is needed to discourage car use. Pollution from energy generation is being tackled under the European Union Acidification Strategy.
