beijing's sky is getting bluer. a beijing youth daily reporter learned from the municipal ecological environment bureau on the 23rd that in recent years, beijing has vigorously implemented the green beijing strategy, and the pm2.5 concentration has dropped by more than 60% in ten years. according to statistics, from january to august this year, the average pm2.5 concentration in the city was 31 micrograms per cubic meter, a year-on-year decrease of 3.1%; the number of good days accumulated to 178 days, an increase of 9 days year-on-year. in august this year, the average monthly pm2.5 concentration in the city was 16 micrograms per cubic meter, the best in the same period in history.
the number of new energy vehicles in use has increased to nearly 900,000
since the beginning of this year, beijing has deepened the "one microgram" action, continued to implement the monthly evaluation of the municipal party committee, built a "green content" indicator system, focused on the implementation of the 2024 measures for the blue sky defense campaign, promoted the green and low-carbon transformation of industry, energy, and transportation, and accelerated the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, in order to enhance the "gold content" of the industry by developing "green content."
it is reported that the city has vigorously implemented the relevant policies of beijing's automobile trade-in subsidy, and increased the subsidy for scrapping old fuel passenger cars and purchasing new energy vehicles. the "beijing plan for accelerating the elimination of national iv emission standard diesel trucks and promoting the renewal of light new energy trucks (2024-2025)" was issued and implemented to provide incentives for the renewal of new energy trucks. since the beginning of this year, the proportion of new energy vehicles in the city's new vehicles has shown an accelerating growth trend. as of the end of august, the city's new energy vehicle ownership was nearly 900,000. the proportion of new energy vehicles in non-road mobile machinery continued to increase, and the proportion of new energy vehicles in new non-road mobile machinery in august reached more than 50%.
at the same time, the city continues to accelerate the "greening" of enterprises. in conjunction with the 2024 summer volatile organic compounds (vocs) governance campaign, it focuses on promoting the "green content" of voc-related enterprises, promoting clean production, "one factory, one policy" governance, and performance improvement. in august, 44 new green auto repair companies and 14 voc-related industrial companies were added. the clean transformation of 17 oil-fired boilers and the low-nitrogen governance of 789 steam-ton gas boilers were orderly promoted.
diffusion conditions are expected to be unfavorable this autumn and winter
the city has also studied and formulated measures to strengthen green construction and reduce pollution at construction sites, and promoted advanced dust prevention technologies such as foundation pit air membranes in the core area and beijing's sub-center. at the same time, policies supporting the promotion and use of new energy construction waste transportation vehicles in the core area were studied. the results of the 100-day campaign to control dust were continuously consolidated, and the "four dusts" of construction, roads, bare land, and sand and dust were fully implemented. in august, the average dust load on the city's roads decreased by 15.7% year-on-year.
a relevant person in charge of the beijing municipal ecological environment bureau said that although beijing's air quality has maintained a year-on-year improvement trend, the results are not yet stable. according to forecasts, the diffusion conditions in autumn and winter this year are unfavorable, and the city needs to work together to continuously promote the "green creation" work, plan ahead for the comprehensive pollution control in autumn and winter, actively carry out regional joint prevention and control, and use the certainty of emission reduction to deal with the uncertainty of meteorological conditions, and strive to promote continuous improvement of air quality.
pm2.5 concentration dropped by more than 60% in ten years
a reporter from beijing youth daily learned that in recent years, beijing has vigorously implemented the green beijing strategy, achieving historic achievements of a more than 60% reduction in pm2.5 concentration and a half reduction in carbon emission intensity in ten years. the results of its air pollution control were evaluated by the united nations environment programme as a "beijing miracle."
at the 2024 beijing international metropolis clean air and climate action forum held recently, tu ruihe, the un environment programme's representative in china, said, "beijing has taken targeted and effective actions to reduce pollution, reduce carbon emissions, and promote green development over the years, and the environmental quality has been greatly improved and enhanced." while affirming the effectiveness of beijing's ecological and environmental protection, tu ruihe also mentioned that the annual average concentration of fine particulate matter in beijing is still lower than the world health organization (who) guidance value, and it is necessary to continue to systematically, finely and accurately promote air quality improvement and form a linkage in the beijing-tianjin-hebei region.
it is reported that beijing will promote green and low-carbon development in the future, with carbon peak and carbon neutrality as the general guide, and the dual control of energy consumption to the dual control of carbon emissions and intensity as the driving force, accelerate the low-carbon, clean and safe transformation of the energy structure and the green and intelligent development of the industrial structure, and promote the green development of building energy conservation and the low-carbon and green transformation of heating. carry out carbon emission statistics and carbon footprint management to guide the reduction of carbon emissions throughout the life cycle.
at the same time, beijing will improve the diversity, stability and sustainability of the ecosystem, consolidate the achievements of forest city construction across the region, strive to build a garden city surrounded by forests and parks, implement an integrated protection and restoration project for mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grasslands and deserts in the west of beijing, promote the construction of the beijing section of the yanshan-saihanba national park, and improve the quality of the ecosystem and its carbon sequestration capacity.
