Europe still playing catch-up on air pollution, despite reduction successes http://www.eea.europa.eu/highlights/europe-still-playing-catch-up?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic The European Union appears to have met several objectives to reduce the impacts of air pollution, according to the original scientific understanding used to set the objectives. But when using the improved scientific understanding of air pollution now available, it becomes clear that emissions need to be even further reduced to protect health and the environment.
