That the large Chinese cities, a luchtvervuilingsprobleempje have is the government not aware of that. In a response, the partijapparaat decided this year to 5 million cars (!) by the shredder to rausen.

Say what you want about the Chinese government, a powerful government can do nails with heads store. If you are here in the western world do not agree with a decision you can with the contest, in court, where the case so a 5 year stretch, if you are in China do not agree with a decision, you have bad luck, the will of the government is the law. For civil rights may not be as enjoyable, but it does mean that there is packed.

Published yesterday the government a document in which it is announced that cars with a local yellow label, which does not meet the Chinese emission standards to meet, yet this year ‘eliminated’. It comes to 5,33 million vehicles, according to Reuters news agency, that the document is realized.

For decades, if anything the Chinese economic growth, and the environment, not at all. Pay the Chinese the price in the form of a greatly reduced biodiversity in rivers, em metropolises like Shanghai and Beijing where on certain days a year, no hand for eyes to see. It should be clear that the inhalation of this thick smoglucht also not wonderful for the lungs (although with many of the Chinese already quite doorrookt).

But like I said, when the will is there, then there could be decisive action. Local electric cars (BYD) for a while, quite pushed, and recently Tesla active in the Chinese market.

The government is now the icing on the cake, after previous targets have not been met. However, the question is to what extent this really continued. The annual economic growth is already times not more in the double digits for this year is slightly more than 7% is expected. This has to be the absolute minimum that the country needs.

About the exact implementation of this large scale auto-elimination will be no further statements made. Maybe your license plate should keep it if you a new, clean (and obviously Chinese) car purchase?
