The reason is simple: cars are getting cleaner. Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) at the University of Colorado Boulder. Even on the most polluted day during a research mission in 2010, we measured half the VOCs we had seen just eight years earlier. The difference was amazing.

Globally, commercial ships emit almost half as much particulate matter pollutants into the air as the total amount released by the world’s cars, according to a new study led by NOAA and the University of Colorado at Boulder. As a result, some ships use “cleaner,” low-sulfur fuels, while others continue to use the high-sulfur counterparts.

Obama was delivering a speech on energy policy at Georgetown University. Meeting the goal of cutting US oil dependence depends largely on two things, Obama said: finding and producing more oil at home, and reducing dependence on oil with cleaner alternative fuels and greater efficiency. And we have to do it quickly.

Data gathering for the Beijing study was completed in 2008. Replacing gasoline buses with cleaner diesel buses will lead to considerable reductions of VOC and CO levels, while replacing or retrofitting dirty, high-mileage diesel buses will lead to significant reductions of PM and NO x emissions.

In 2008, a report by UNEP called for the elimination of fossil-fuel subsidies, concluding that such subsidies often lead to increased levels of consumption and waste; place a heavy burden on government finances; can undermine private and public investment in the energy sector; and do not always end up helping the people who need them most.

Moreover, while an eventual treaty would be likely to include a cap-and-trade system, under which the world’s bigger polluters would buy allowances from cleaner corporations or utilities, it is unclear how—or even if—it would work.
