Bloss: WHO guideline values should become limit values for clean air

At the Table.Live briefing, Green climate politician Michael Bloss (MEP) called for the Commission to translate the WHO guideline values into limit values on a 1:1 basis in its proposal for the Air Quality Directive. Bloss told at the discussion event, „If the Commission ends up proposing the limit values that Europe.Table has already reported on, they would still be twice as high as the WHO is calling for, with good reasons.“ The Stuttgart MEP said, „It should be our incentive to ensure clean air in cities that meets the demands of science.“ The Commission plans to decide on the limit values today.
