Air pollution and excessive noise harm our health and our environment. Air pollution mainly stems from industry, transport, energy production and agriculture. The 2013 EU air quality strategy aimed to achieve full compliance with existing air quality legislation by 2020 and set long-term objectives for 2030. As part of the European Green Deal, the EU is revising these standards, to align them more closely with the recommendations of the World Health Organization. The EU also aims to improve overall EU legislation for clean air, building on the lessons learnt from the 2019 evaluation (‘fitness check’) of the Ambient Air Quality Directives. The 2002 Environmental Noise Directive helps to identify noise levels in the EU and to take the necessary measures to reduce them to acceptable levels. Separate legislation regulates noise pollution from specific sources.
