本港的路邊污染水平一直遠超安全水平，長期超過世界衛生組織標準上限的2倍。  

近年，政府推出直接減排措施，有助減低高污染車輛排放。然而，香港車輛數字增長持續失控。過多車輛除了導致嚴重交通擠塞，亦令路邊污染惡化。過多車輛已經成為本港路邊污染的主因之一。本港車輛登記數字在二十年期間，由52萬激增至82萬。  

根據香港大學公共衛生學院的2016年達理指數，因空氣污染而引致的死亡人數達1, 686人。空氣污染對小孩、長者、基層的影響更大。

Over the last 20 years, roadside air pollution has remained at an alarming level which is two times over the WHO’s standard.

In the recent years, the number of registered vehicles has continued to soar despite government efforts to curb vehicle emission. The number of registered vehicles has increased drastically from 530,000 to 820,000 in the last decade. This has seriously increased traffic congestion and thus contributing to the increase level of roadside air pollution.

According to the Hedley Environmental Index of HKU School of Public Health, the air pollution in 2016 has caused 1,686 premature deaths in Hong Kong. Children, elderly, and grass roots citizens are the most vulnerable demographic groups to air pollution.

We need your immediate support to urge the government to improve their current environmental policies and implement more effective policies to curb vehicle growth.
