BEIJING - Ozone overtook PM2.5 to become the main air pollutant in China in July, and may remain so until the end of October, according to a report released Monday.

Evidence presented at the European Society for Cardiology Congress in London yesterday suggested that exposure to pollutants can push up the risk of heart attacks by up to five per cent - with the

Particulate matter and NO2 air pollution are associated with increased risk of severe heart attacks despite being within European recommended levels, according to research presented at ESC Congress

New research from Berkeley Earth has found that air pollution in China is directly implicated in the deaths of roughly 1.6 million people a year.

There can be no question that the epic story of our time is our struggle to endure against the threatening demons of our own creation. In that story, China must be the sleeping giant.

More than 12,200 coal-fired boilers and factories in polluting industries will suspend production starting Aug 28 in a bid to get good air quality for the city's Sept 3 military parade by reducing

China has recently made available hourly air pollution data from over 1500 sites, including airborne particulate matter (PM), SO2, NO2, and O3. We apply Kriging interpolation to four months of data to derive pollution maps for eastern China. Consistent with prior findings, the greatest pollution occurs in the east, but significant levels are widespread across northern and central China and are not limited to major cities or geologic basins. Sources of pollution are widespread, but are particularly intense in a northeast corridor that extends from near Shanghai to north of Beijing.
