Tackling Vietnam’s air pollution

June 5, 2019 by

Adam Ward, Country Representative of the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) in Vietnam (left) and Kate Bronstein, Research Environmental Engineer from RTI International. Air pollution is a mixture of small particles and gases – some we can see and some we can’t. Vietnam’s major cities are gravely affected by poor air quality; indeed, Hanoi was ranked second worst for air quality in the Southeast Asian region in 2018 by Air Visual. Situation in Vietnam When we talk about air pollution, we are referring to: particulate matter 10 micrometers or less in diameter (PM10), PM2.5, black carbon, nitrogen oxides (NO and NO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3), and volatile organic carbons (VOCs). Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City regularly exceed the safe World Health Organization (WHO) limit for air pollution such as PM2.5 and PM10. So, what is causing this poor air? This has been attributed to five main drivers, including coal power, heavy industry (such as cement … [Read more...] about Tackling Vietnam’s air pollution

Hanoi air pollution goes from very bad to much worse

September 30, 2019 by

At 8 a.m. on Monday, a bird’s eye view shows smog giving Hanoi the look of a ghost city. Hours earlier, at 4 a.m., AirVisual recorded Hanoi’s air quality index (AQI) at 385 - the highest level the city has witnessed this month. AirVisual measures Hanoi's air quality based on 10 monitoring stations run by Hanoi authorities and four by non-profit organizations. However, this result is vastly different compared to the AQI recorded by the automatic monitoring systems in Hanoi installed at various spots, which ranged from 147 – 162. AirVisual showed the AQI on Nguyen Chi Thanh Street at 302 at 8 a.m., but Hanoi's monitoring station on Thanh Cong Street (1.2 km away) had it at 150. The AQI, a metric used by multiple governmental agencies to determine how polluted the air is, ranges from 0 to 500, where high index values indicate higher levels of air pollution and higher potential for adverse health effects. Children, seniors and individuals with … [Read more...] about Hanoi air pollution goes from very bad to much worse

Hanoians warned to limit outdoor activities amid heightened levels of air pollution

December 13, 2019 by

The findings taken by Vietnam-based environment monitoring app PamAir indicate that the AQI is currently harmful for human health around the inner city of Hanoi. Moreover, areas on the capital’s outskirts such as Bac Tu Liem have seen the AQI level reach up to 323, which is a dangerous level according to application. The Vietnam Environment Administration has attributed the increased levels of air pollution over the past few days to the change of season occurring in Hanoi and other regions across the north. According to environmental experts, the increasing levels of PM 2.5 are recorded at midnight and early in the morning, whilst calm winds and ongoing activities at construction sites across the capital have also contributed to the increased levels of pollution. … [Read more...] about Hanoians warned to limit outdoor activities amid heightened levels of air pollution
