Linking Air Quality and Climate Change

Air pollution reduction measures are known to have synergistic effects on reducing greenhouse gases. Fighting air pollution is thus part of EU efforts to halt climate change.

The EEB therefore supports an integrated approach to air and climate policies - in particular during the upcoming revision of the NEC Directive.
