Project
CLEAN AIR
Over the years, the high level of Air Pollution Index has led
to growing concern among the general public, tourists and investors.
To help combat
air pollution, the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce and the Hong Kong Business
Coalition on the Environment are leading a Hong Kong business sector effort - the Project
CLEAN AIR - to improve air quality in the Greater Pearl River Delta. The
focal point of the project is the Clean Air Charter, which is supported by a series of
promotional activities.>>>
