UN: Electric boats can alleviate pollution

On World Environment Day, which was marked on Wednesday, UNEP said a team of experts was now working with the Climate and Clean Air Coalition as well as the Pollution Control Department on a project to assess the impact canal-based public transport can have on air pollution in the city.

The study aims to find a better alternative that can mitigate the air pollution from this mode of transport. Sonthi Kotchawat, a prominent environmental health expert, also said that discarding diesel fuel would be key to tackling Bangkok’s air-pollution problems.
