In response to 2015 Policy Address, Clean Air Network (CAN) believes the government should endorse a sustainable transport and city planning and introduce effective means to reduce marine emission in Hong Kong.
Reduction of marine emission and improving regional air situation
Marine emission has become the major source of air pollutants in Hong Kong. Levels of sulphur dioxide (SO2), an indicator of marine emissions, exceeded the WHO annual guideline (5 µg/m3) at all monitoring stations except Tai Po. Kwai Chung had the highest SO2 levels among all stations, followed by Tsuen Wan, Sham Shui Po, Tuen Mun and Tung Chung.
In addition, Ozone (O3) pollution in Hong Kong (except Tap Mun) recorded higher concentrations compared to 2013 and is the highest in record. O3 levels at Kwun Tong, Sha Tin, Tai Po and Tsuen Wan also reached record highs (46 µg/m3, 51 µg/m3, 52 µg/m3, and 39 µg/m3, respectively). This indicates regional air has been deteriorating over these years.
CAN urges the government to set up onshore electric power system at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal as soon as possible to reduce emission from all boarding cruises. In response to the deteriorating region air situation, CAN suggest implementing mandatory switch of fuels to less than 0.5 percent sulphur content and set up Emission Control Area in the greater PRD waters.
