Heavy pollution hangs in the air as traffic rolls along a recently completed expressway interchange that leads into Beijing’s downtown. AFP Photo/ Stephen Shaver Medical researchers at Hong Kong University and the University of London have concluded that if the sulfur emission from vehicles is reduced, the number of deaths due to heart and respiratory related diseases is also reduced, according to a Nov. 22, 2002, report on the Chinese BBC website. The researchers conducted studies on deaths related to heart and respiratory diseases at a time when the Hong Kong government, then a colony under United Kingdom rule, had adopted new regulations to limit the amount of sulfur in gasoline. This resulted in a significant reduction in the amount of carbon dioxide and sulfide in the air. In the first year, it was estimated that about 600 lives in Hong Kong were saved by the sulfur emission regulation. These 600 people were mostly elderly or patients with respiratory and heart diseases. Air pollution is known to foster diseases in humans. Pollution from motor vehicles is widely believed to provide at least half of the air pollution in cities, even more where environmental factors and topography can play a role, as in Los Angeles. In cities like Beijing and Guangzhou in China, 60 percent of the air pollution comes from automobile emissions. Some cities have pollution levels that are often multiples of official safety standards. In China, where sales of automobiles are skyrocketing, the impact will be magnified. In addition, the more vehicles on the road, the more accidents occur, causing injuries and deaths in greater numbers.
