Hong Kong environment chief defends 2030 clean air targets

Original: Environment chief defends 2030 clean air targets and outlines shift toward construction-site hydrogen power

Hong Kong's environment chief has defended the government's 2030 clean air targets, rejecting criticism that the goals are too weak or off track. He also outlined a push to introduce hydrogen power at construction sites, part of efforts to cut emissions from heavy machinery and speed up the city's decarbonisation as the 2030 deadline approaches.

Why now: Growing public scrutiny of whether Hong Kong can meet its 2030 air quality and climate commitments has put the environment chief's policies in the spotlight.
