The pollution in Beijing was 6 times than last year

Beijing, the Chinese Capital, was named amongst the most polluted cities in the world by 2021. The pollution in the city was so elaborate that even the surrounding buildings, hills and lush green trees were not visible from Tiananmen Square due to the mist. There was also a danger of the Winter Olympics being in trouble, but now it is not so. Beijing's air is so clean these days that athletes participating in the Olympics can see the mountains and green valleys around the city from afar.

According to a recent report by the Chicago-based Energy Policy Institute, China has initiated several projects to improve air quality. Government schemes were strictly implemented. Strict rules were made for coal-fired factories. The number of cars on the roads was reduced to prevent air pollution. In homes, coal-fired boilers were replaced with gas or electric heaters.

The effect of these measures taken by the Chinese government is also visible. Pollution was 6 times more than the limit in China last year, but now everything is under control. China is committed to being carbon neutral by 2060. However, China is still heavily dependent on coal for electricity.

Despite this, significant progress has been made in reducing the damage caused by coal. Developing clean energy from sources such as wind and solar.
