Abstract: There has been severely regional compound pollution in China now. However, the existing institutional arrangement of air quality management has not responded to the emerged pollution situation. The authors analyze two key limitations of existing air pollution control strategy. First, the in-effective feature due to the pollution control target setting based only on emission reduction, and only for key pollutant; second, the costly feature in the long-term due to design of the control strategy based on major but single pollutant as well as the local based pattern. Referencing to the international experience, the authors give suggestions that transforming air pollution control target from emission reduction to damage reduction (or air quality improvement); transforming control strategy from single pollutant control to multi-pollutant control; and developing an ecological compensation mechanism based on regional air quality management.

Key words: regional compound pollution, effectiveness, cost, efficiency, equity

摘要: 中国目前区域复合污染现象突出, 现行大气环境质量管理制度安排无法反映这种污染形势的变化。现行的传统污染控制策略的局限性可以概括为: 单纯以主要污染物减排量作为最终控制目标缺乏有效性; 单一指标控制和属地管理模式使得区域总体和长期控制成本高昂。在总结国外经验的基础上, 提出以下政策建议: 在大气污染控制决策过程中应尽快把目标从减少污染物排放转变为减少环境损害(或提高环境质量效益); 污染控制应从单一污染物控制转向多种污染物控制; 应该基于共同发展、区域联防联控的原则, 建立基于区域大气环境管理的生态补偿机制。
