| description |
Transport-related air pollution is
increasingly contributing to environmental health risks in
many developing country cities. The social costs of poor
urban quality can be significant, making this issue an
immediate priority. Long-term measures for dealing with the
problem include urban planning, and traffic demand
management. This paper however, focuses primarily on
cost-effective measures, that are feasible to implement, and
that can bring measurable results in the short to medium
term. There is a tendency in the environment sector, to
focus narrowly on controlling emissions by importing the
best available technology. Cost-effective, and sustainable
solutions, however, require much broader approaches. In
developing countries, improving air quality is not simply a
matter of importing advanced technologies, while, choices
concerning feasibility, sequencing, and timing of pollution
reducing measures, have serious fiscal, and economic
consequences. Thus the guiding principle for selection of
strategies, should be the balancing of costs, benefits, and
technical, and institutional feasibility. Monitoring, and
enforcement are essential , but countries need to know the
nature, and magnitude of the pollution problem, to determine
the speed, and rigor with which policies should be
implemented. Furthermore, pollution enforcement measures
have implications on petroleum taxation, and on the tariff
regime, as well as for traffic management. |
