Q: Air pollution in Beijing is a major concern of many athletes going to the Olympics. What measure has been taken to protect and improve the air quality? 
 
A: The Beijing municipal government has exerted great efforts to improve air quality for the Olympics. Over 200 projects have been carried out involving 100 billion yuan. Measures implemented as more greenery planting; less emissions and lower heating radiation etc have all been proved effective. In fact, the past year has seen index of blue sky in Beijing reached 246 days. And for this Jan. it was 24 days which hit the record for past 9 years. So we are fully confident of the air quality towards the Olympics. 
 
As a matter of fact, since last year, it is a lawful obligation for governments to meet lower emission standards together with the development of GDP. So it is a matter for sure future China will be much greener and environment-friendly.
