Good news for the environment and everyone living on the Chinese mainland! 🌍 In the first nine months of 2024, both air and water quality have shown steady improvements.
According to new data released by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the average density of PM2.5 in 339 cities at or above the prefecture level dropped by 3.6% year-on-year, reaching 27 micrograms per cubic meter. This means cleaner air and healthier lives for millions.
Pei Xiaofei, spokesperson for the Ministry, highlighted that the proportion of days with good air quality increased to 85.8%, up by 1.6 percentage points compared to the same period last year. This improvement is a testament to the ongoing efforts to combat pollution and promote sustainable practices across the region.
While air quality gets much of the attention, water quality has also been on an upward trend, contributing to a more balanced and healthier ecosystem. These positive changes reflect the Chinese mainland's commitment to environmental protection and creating a better future for all its residents.
