• Abstract:
  Motor vehicle air pollution is a critical component of China's severe air quality problem and has the potential to become an even greater issue in the years to come. On this project, the principal investigator and research staff are developing Harvard Kennedy School teaching case studies on the policy and institutional dimensions of recent efforts to control motor vehicle air pollution in China, focusing on the efforts to improve Beijing air quality in the 2008 Olympic Games. The cases are intended to inform students about pollution reduction efforts in the context of the rapidly changing Chinese urban transportation system and to prompt them to think about how they would approach various policy and implementation options for reducing motor vehicle air pollution.
