Punjab Higher Education Commission (PHEC) Chairperson Dr Shahid Munir told Dawn the government should start the regional clean air incentives market (RECLAIM) programme to clean air in the country like America did in the past. He said the government should introduce legislation to set air quality standards for certain pollutants considered harmful to public health and the environment.
He said the environment department should adopt and enforce emissions standards to reduce air pollution nationwide.
Mr Munir said America adopted the RECLAIM programme in 1993 and set an emissions cap and declining balance for many of the largest facilities emitting nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx).
According to him, RECLAIM has the longest history and practical experience of any locally designed and implemented air emissions cap and trade (CAT) programme as it allows participating facilities to trade air pollution while meeting clean air goals.
He said the programme was designed to provide industry with flexibility to decide how to reduce emissions and advance pollution control technologies. NOx and/or SOx allocations were issued to RECLAIM facilities based on their historical activity levels and applicable emission control levels specified in the rules.
He said facilities within the RECLAIM programme had the option of complying with their allocation allowance by either reducing emissions or purchasing RECLAIM trading credits from other facilities. He said the air pollution had ended in America after following the RECLAIM programme, which was still going on.
