California’s Agriculture-Related Local Air Pollution Policy
Air pollution is a critical environmental issue for California, which has some of the nation’s most polluted air basins and also the nation’s most stringent set of state and local air quality standards. This paper reviews my previous work in Lin (2011), in which I examine the effects of agriculture-related local regulations in California on air quality, as measured by the number of exceedances ...
متن کاملElements of air pollution policy analysis
The National Research Council has pointed out that more ways need to be explored to link scientific research effectively with policy and environmental decision-making. One approach would be to promote interdisciplinary efforts designed to give science graduate students an opportunity to work in a collaborative effort, such as with economists and political scientists, to fulfill a project situat...
متن کاملLocal Arctic air pollution: Sources and impacts
Local emissions of Arctic air pollutants and their impacts on climate, ecosystems and health are poorly understood. Future increases due to Arctic warming or economic drivers may put additional pressures on the fragile Arctic environment already affected by mid-latitude air pollution. Aircraft data were collected, for the first time, downwind of shipping and petroleum extraction facilities in t...
متن کاملResidential and Local Sources of Air Pollution
Since the early 1970s, environmental agencies have focussed most of their attention on large point sources and transport sources of air pollutants. The myriad of small sources scattered throughout suburban Australia, such as people’s heating appliances, lawnmowers and suburban restaurants, have received little attention. Perhaps this is simply because they are so dispersed or they may have been...
متن کاملLocal Air Pollution in Fast Developing Countries
The non-linear chemistry, responsible for ozone formation poses problems in developing an optimized abatement strategy. Estimates of emissions are often quite uncertain, e.g. in estimates of biogenic emissions and car emissions. Effective abatement should be based on a careful evaluation of local conditions regarding oxidant formation. Some control strategies are effective in one place, but not...
