To tackle air pollution and achieve the EU’s zero pollution vision for 2050, the EU has a comprehensive clean air policy based on three pillars: ambient air quality standards, reducing air pollution emissions, and emissions standards for key sources of pollution.
EU air quality standards. The EU air quality standards and objectives are summarised in the table below. These apply over different periods of time because the observed health impacts associated with the various pollutants occur over different exposure times.
The WHO updated its global air quality guidelines (AQGs) in September 2021. In this revision, focused on PM, ozone, NO2, SO2 and carbon monoxide (CO), the WHO adjusted almost all its recommended limit values downwards compared with the guidelines' previous version dating back to 2005.
Parliament on Wednesday adopted a provisional political agreement with EU countries on new measures to improve air quality in the EU so it is no longer harmful to human health, natural ecosystems and biodiversity, by 381 votes in favour, 225 against, and 17 abstentions.
The proposed revision will set interim 2030 EU air quality standards, aligned more closely with WHO recommendations, while putting the EU on a trajectory to achieve zero pollution for air at the latest by 2050, in synergy with climate-neutrality efforts.
