From the supplier: Physician, professor of medicine and air pollution expert David Bates notes that all humans share certain failings, with one of these being procrastination in acting to stop a preventable crisis from happening. The lower mainland area of British Columbia (BC), Canada, is a case in point. Vehicle emission problems in this area were ignored until ozone levels in the Fraser Valley reached 212 parts per billion on Sep 3, 1988, at 4 pm. This amount of ozone is deleterious to both crops and the lung function of normal people. Despite serious steps undertaken by the provincial and local governments, the population of the BC lower mainland will likely continue to increase which means that car use will likely continue to disproportionately grow. If air pollution is to be contained, per-vehicle emissions must be reduced as the size of the motor vehicle fleet increases.
