Measuring Progress in China’s “War on Pollution”蓝天保卫战：进展和未来

Join the University of Chicago and the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for a special event examining recent progress in China’s War on Pollution and opportunities for further advancements. The event will feature the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago’s Chinese launch of the Air Quality Life Index (AQLI), a first-of-its-kind tool that allows policymakers to quantify the benefits of air pollution reduction measures by converting them into the most important metric that exists: improvements in life expectancy.

诚挚邀请您参加由芝加哥大学和中国科学院大学共同举办主题为“蓝天保卫战：进展和未来”小型研讨会。会议将发布芝加哥大学能源政策研究所的研究成果“空气质量寿命指数”，该指数是同类指数中的第一个运用“预期寿命”来量化蓝天保卫战中环保政策重要性的代表。
 
The event will also feature an announcement of a groundbreaking energy and environmental research partnership between the University of Chicago and the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which will focus on identifying new, cost-effective energy and environmental policies. A panel discussion on the effects of air pollution on public health and China’s progress thus far in improving its air quality will take place during the event.
届时芝加哥大学和中国科学院大学还将宣布两校在能源和环境方面的合作，双方将致力于创新能源和环境政策研究。小组讨论将就空气污染控制、公共卫生影响等议题进行探讨。
