Dear friends,

Thanks for your support! The online petition that calls for a stricter air quality standard has already ended. Over 4,500 people have sent their petitions to the Hong Kong government. Each of your voices were counted in.

That said, you still have a chance to join the campaign. You can follow the link below and sign up as a member of Greenpeace Air Pollution Patrol. Greenpeace will continue the fight together with you for the better air quality of Hong Kong.

Best regards,
Greenpeace China

The Air Pollution Index does not give the real picture

Every day the Hong Kong government releases its “Air Pollution Index” (API) which is based upon an outdated standard called the “Air Quality Objective” (AQO). The AQO is not as stringent as World Health Organization air quality standards and does not accurately reflect the safety of the air we breathe. Research shows that public health problems caused by air pollution are costing at least HK$11 billion annually.
