Urban air pollution a key issue WHO estimates more than 1 billion people exposed to outdoor air exceeding maximum recommended levels Up to 1 million premature deaths, up to 1 million pre-natal deaths Cost of urban air pollution estimated to be 2% of GDP, in developed countries and more than 5% in developing countries (e.g. 7% China, to rise to 13% by 2020) Local and global effects (climate change)

In US almost half of urban residents exposed to harmful levels of ozone; In Nairobi, Kenya, lead levels are more than 25 times as high as WHO standards; In Shanghai, China, mobile sources are contributing between 70%-90% to air pollution such as CO, NOx, HC and particulates; GEF now recognises transport sector as key to CO2 emissions Urban air pollution a key issue - continued

Urban populations – by Region Urban populations in 2000, by region

Vehicle Population in Major Indian Cities Source: Motor Transport Statistics of India, , Govt of India SIAM (In ‘000s)

Partnership for Clean Fuels and Vehicles (PCFV) -established at the World Summit on Sustainable Development, August 2002; -to promote clean fuels and vehicles to address urban air quality -public – private Partnership -Clearing-House in UNEP Headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya

PCFV Objectives the elimination of lead in gasoline and the phase down of sulfur in diesel and gasoline fuels, concurrent with; the adoption of cleaner vehicle technologies website:

Partners

PCFV Activities Global level –Clearing House at UNEP HQ –Information collection and dissemination (incl. website) –Partners network –Working Groups on key issues Support to Partners and activities at regional, sub-regional and national levels

PCFV – Substantive Activities Global Working Groups: -Valve Seat Recession -Octane -Sulfur -Public Awareness

PCFV and Asia -Increasing activities in Asia in 2005 (PCFV Programme of Work 2005) -Phase out leaded gasoline in countries still using -Reduce sulfur levels -Support introduction of clean vehicles technologies (gasoline : catalytic converters, diesel: PM traps) and clean vehicles -Cooperation with key players (USEPA, CAI-Asia, ADB, UNEP, SIAM, JPEC, JAMA, ….etc. -- all PCFV Partners or in process of joining)
