The Chinese Take Their Own Ecology Seriously

In China, a new law has been enacted that limits the release of vehicles that do not meet established environmental standards. Primarily, the ban will affect carbon monoxide emissions and will also impact fuel consumption.

The Chinese Take Their Own Ecology Seriously

According to reports in the media, the general secretary of the passenger car association stated that a large percentage of cars manufactured in the Land of the Rising Sun remain in China. Vehicles from well-known brands such as Mercedes, Audi, or Chevrolet are being adapted to European environmental standards.

According to the Chinese government, more than 50% of cars harm the country’s ecology. Starting from 2018, new laws will help reduce the emissions of toxic gases. As of January 1, 553 car models have already been banned.

It is expected that by mid-2018, the Chinese government will develop a 12-year plan to transition vehicles from hydrocarbon energy sources to electric storage. By 2030, China plans to ban the manufacture and sale of internal combustion engine vehicles. The practice of producing “green” cars exists in China. Over the past year, half a million electric cars have been sold in the country and are now on Chinese roads.
