Q1

甚麼是健康空氣行動 (CAN )?

A1

健康空氣行動(CAN )於2009年成立,至今已為關注香港空氣議題的主要倡導者,也是香港唯一專注空氣問題的非政府組織。十多年來,健康空氣行動致力匯聚社會各界的不同聲音,並結合專業的科學分析,不斷促進政商界對話,以協助香港政府制定長遠的減排政策,改善香港的空氣質素。 

 

近年來,健康空氣行動正著手提升社區大眾對空氣污染問題的認識,並提出不同的政策建議,以助香港政府盡快達致零排放!健康空氣行動認為清新潔淨的空氣並非在遙不可及,只要香港市民共同努力,持續關注空氣污染等相關問題,清新空氣指日可待!

Q2

What has CAN achieved?

A2

Policy Change

Under our ongoing advocacy work, the Government has in the past years: 

  • Amended the principal air pollution control ordinance to review Air Quality Objectives at least once every five years 
  • Set up a 10–billion dollar fund to subsidize the replacement of old and polluting commercial diesel vehicles
  • Mandated fuel switch at berth for ocean going vessels 
  • Commenced the first walkability study in Hong Kong 
  • Published the Clean Air Plan 2035 and the first EV Roadmap for Hong Kong, which 
  • Set out long-term strategy on air quality management and green transport 

And the Government will 

  • Enhance air quality at public transport interchanges
  • Update the Air Quality Health Index to show long-term and short-term health risks 
  • Commit to provide more detailed district–based air quality information to public 

Knowledge Change

In the past 5 years, CAN has:

  • Approached more than 20,000 individuals, including over 2,000 students in 100 secondary schools, more than 500 parents and volunteers, through our public empowerment programmes
  • Maintained a strong local media presence 

Now, the public understands a lot more about the health impacts of air pollution!

Air Pollution Reduced

Over the past 5 years, the annual average concentrations of major pollutants have been dropping:

Air pollutant

General stations

Roadside stations

NO2

-8%

-15%

PM10

-15%

-8%

PM2.5

-35%

-16%

Societal Costs of Air Pollution Reduced

In the past 5 years, 

  • Number of premature deaths dropped by 29% 
  • Economic loss dropped by 30%
  • Number of Clean Air Days increased by 37%

Q2

CAN達成了甚麼成果?

A2

政策改變

在我們多年持續倡議下,政府近年:

  • 修訂空氣染管制條例,至空氣質素指標須至少每五年檢討一次
  • 投放100億元資助淘汰舊式柴油商業車輛
  • 規定在港停泊的遠洋船使用清潔燃油
  • 展開香港首個易行度研究
  • 推出《清新空氣藍圖2035》及首份《電動車普及化路線圖》
  • 為空氣質素管理及綠色運輸制訂長遠策略

政府亦擬:
改善公共交通交匯處的空氣質素

  • 更新空氣質素健康指數,以反映短期及長期健康風險
  • 向公眾提供更多地區空氣質素資訊

知識改變
CAN於過去五年:

  • 透過公眾參與項目接觸超過2萬人,包括來自過百間中學的2,000多名學生、500多名家長及義工
  • 持續透過本地媒體表達意見

現時市民對更加了解空氣污染帶來的健康影響!

減低空氣污染
在過去五年,主要污染物的年均濃度水平皆有所下跌:

空氣污染物

一般監測站

路邊監測站

NO2

-8%

-15%

PM10

-15%

-8%

PM2.5

-24%

-16%


降低空氣污染帶來的社會成本
過去五年間:

  • 死亡人數減少29%
  • 經濟損失減少30%
  • 空氣清新日數增加37%

Q3

CAN還會做甚麼?

A3

現正進行:

  • 倡議中期綠色運輸政策
  • 加強教育項目
  • 透過建立及分享知識,回應學校、家庭、病人和社區的需要

 

未來計劃:

  • 加快專營巴士、公共小巴、重型貨車轉用零排放車輛,以配合政府2025年策略計劃
  • 成為本地中小學的最佳環境教育伙伴
  • 探討為學校、長者中心、公共設施等設立更嚴格的室內空氣指標

Q4

空氣污染會致癌嗎?

A4

世界衛生組織轄下國際癌症研究機構,於2013年將戶外空氣污染列為一級致癌物,亦是首次科學家評估人類所吸入的空氣有機會致癌。不同的研究分析顯示,空氣污染或損壞體內每個器官,引起腦退化症、心肺疾病、生育問題及智能受損。

Q5

弱勢社群受到足夠保護嗎?

A5

兩項分別於2008年(港大及中大)及2018年(港大及劍橋)發表的研究均指出,本港貧困人口吸入更多污染空氣。即使所有人都會接觸到一定程度的空氣污染,但本身健康欠佳的人士,以及有經濟困難的人士,所受的影響更大。

Q6

空氣污染的影響是跨越世代嗎?

A6

胎盤中曾發現空氣污染粒子,反映嬰兒於出生前已接觸到汽車及燃煤排放的黑碳。空氣污染會增加低出生體重及早產的風險,並削弱寶寶認知能力及肺功能,影響更會延至寶寶後期成長階段。年幼時期所受的健康影響,會增加未來的患病風險。長期處於危險空氣污染水平的兒童,或終身受疾病影響。
