Emissions of acidifying substances (version 1) (CSI 001) - Assessment published Mar 2008: Aggregated emissions of acidifying gases (NH 3 , NO x , SO 2 ) have decreased significantly in most EEA member countries between 1990 and 2005 (Figure 1) despite increased economic activity (GDP) occurring during this period. However, meeting the 2010 NO x emission ceilings is likely to be a problem for a number of countries. Emissions in the EU-15 Member States decreased by 47% since 1990 from 1 025 kt to 539 kt (Figure 2). The EU-15 is well on track on meeting its overall 2010 NECD target for acidifying pollutants. Between 1900 and 2005 emissions of acidifying pollutants in the new EU-12 countries declined significantly from 503 kt to 206 kt, a reduction of 59% (Figure 3). The new EU-12 is also on track on meeting its overall 2010 NECD target for acidifying substances.

Air Pollution: harmful particles: The European Commission wants to further reduce air pollution in Europe. Although the situation has improved substantially over the last few decades, there are still significant areas of concern with regard to certain pollutants that are particularly harmful to human health (respiratory diseases) and damaging to the environment (acidification, eutrophication, etc.). The anti-pollution programme that the Commission has launched to that effect is called the “Clean Air for Europe” or CAFE programme.

Emissions of acidifying substances (version 1) (CSI 001) - Assessment published Dec 2006: Emissions of acidifying gases have decreased significantly in most EEA member countries. Between 1990 and 2004, emissions decreased by 46% in the EU-15 and by 62% in the EU-10, despite increased economic activity (GDP).
