Reducing Vehicle Emissions in Asia
Asian Development Bank | June 2003
Abstract
Concerned with the increasing levels of air pollution caused by motor vehicles in Asia’s major cities, Asian Development Bank initiated a project on Reducing Vehicle Emissions in November 2000. The project collected and disseminated information on policies to reduce vehicle emissions through the Reducing Vehicle Emissions in Asia website (http://www.adb.org/vehicleemissions), an information portal on international, regional, national and city level experiences in reducing vehicle emissions.
