Beijing keeps up pressure on pollution

Editor's Note: After 40 years of high-speed growth, China's economy has entered a high-quality development phase. China Daily is featuring a series of reports to show the new landscape across the country.

Beijing's top environment watchdog aims to further curb the emission of pollutants - especially tiny PM2.5 particles that can enter the bloodstream - by promoting the use of new energy cars and gradually replacing old diesel trucks.

The measures are part of municipal growth plans to give the capital a bluer sky and cleaner air.
