What did the smog control in Los Angeles give China?

(1) Strengthen the long-term prediction and analysis of air pollution. At present, many domestic environmental protection agencies have strong monitoring ability, but lack the ability of forward-looking prediction and analysis. Monitoring is to record the current air pollution, and it is only a tracking type; Forecast analysis is to predict the future air pollution by combining urban development, road traffic planning, industrial layout, advanced technology and other factors.

Source so that it will help to make an early response. AQMD attaches great importance to the long-term prediction of air quality in Los Angeles and guarantees it in many aspects. AQMD *** has more than 800 employees, and only 65,438+00% employees are engaged in monitoring. Most of them are engaged in the prediction and research of air pollution, analyze the future pollution sources and put forward countermeasures scientifically.

(2) Introduce market mechanism to control air pollution.

To control air pollution, in addition to compulsory means such as pollutant discharge permit, pollution should also be regarded as a special product, and various economic forces should be guided to participate in pollution control by establishing market means such as air pollution trading system, so that institutions that do well in pollution control can receive practical results and obtain good economic benefits.

(3) The establishment of cross-regional air pollution control institutions often leads to the separation of pollution sources and affected areas due to the high air mobility, and it is often cross-administrative. According to the regional characteristics of air pollution, the establishment of cross-regional air pollution management institutions is conducive to coordinating pollution sources and affected areas, rationally using environmental protection fees and adjusting the distribution of environmental protection resources. For example, the establishment of AQMD in Southern California, where Los Angeles is located, has well balanced the interests between pollution sources and affected areas.

(4) Strengthen international cooperation in environmental protection science and technology between China and the United States. At the beginning of 20 13, the long-term smog weather in Beijing and other places attracted widespread attention at home and abroad. In fact, developed countries in Europe and America have experienced severe smog weather during their economic take-off.
