Beijing issues smog alert

BEIJING’S air pollution emergency response office issued a yellow alert yesterday for smog. The air pollution will persist until tonight.

The yellow alert warned of an air quality index of more than 150 micrograms of harmful fine particulate matter per cubic meter of air for two consecutive days.

Under China’s four-tier warning system, red is the most severe, followed by orange, yellow and blue.

This round of smog is expected to hit Beijing, Tianjin and the provinces of Hebei, Henan and Shandong.
