Emergency Plans For Clean Air In Beijing, No Greyjing

Beijing will take new emergency steps to prevent the “Greying” tagging of the capital city. Moves such as temporarily closing all factories and construction sites around Beijing will be made if there is no improvement of the air quality before the Games. The odd-even number plate policy has already been expanded to Tianjin.

“We will implement an emergency plan 48 hours in advance if the air quality deteriorates during the August 8-24 games,” Li Xin, of the Beijing environmental protection bureau, was quoted as saying.

We really want clean air for Beijing 2008.
