BEIJING yesterday ordered 30 percent of official vehicles off the road and suspended 103 heavily polluting factories as a murky haze that began to choke the capital on Monday got worse yesterday.
Other businesses were encouraged to suspend or cut production by midnight tomorrow, according to an emergency meeting called to tackle the toxic haze.
Earlier, the city's environmental protection bureau had announced that Beijing would be adopting a stricter standard for vehicle emissions from this Friday.
New cars will be subject to Beijing Standard V, equivalent to that in Europe, in a bid to reduce the density of dangerous PM2.5 particles.
