Tracking down the worst polluters in Europe
The dirtiest power plants in Europe still emit enormous amounts of air pollutants. The sulphur emissions from one plant match those of ten EU countries combined. On 9 November, the first inventory of the new European pollutant release and transfer register (E-PRTR) was published. It contains 2007 data on emissions of 91 polluting substances from more than 24,000 industrial facilities in the EU27 and Norway.
