Defra Consultation on Environmental Standards
EPUK has responded to the DEFRA Consultation on Environmental Targets by calling for a more holistic approach to air quality targets, going well beyond simply PM2.5 to include all the pollutants of concern and in particular those within the revised World Health Organisation Guidelines published last year.
The EPUK response, produced by Ruth Calderwood, City of London Air Quality Manager and a member of EPUK’s Air Quality Committee, calls for more urgency in meeting targets, meeting PM2.5 targets in 2030 rather than 2040 as Defra proposed and make the case for urgent action on other air pollutants.
