Les transports, la pollution atmosphérique et la santé : évolution de la gestion des émissions d'ozone par le gouvernement canadien.
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe purpose of this study is to discuss the different types of atmospheric pollution management programs, specifically related to the problem of ozone emissions management by the federal government. Ozone pollution is of considerable concern, especially its impact on the health of the population. Transportation represents an important source of ozone pollutants and the fight against it is becoming more and more inevitable with the increasing volume of traffic and number of vehicles. In Canada, pollution management has been undertaken since the early 70's. Despite the fact that environmental concerns are of provincial jurisdiction, this study will show the increasingly crucial role of the federal government as a guide and leader in air pollution management. This research is undertaken to point out which are the preferred approaches of the Canadian government to solve this problem and to discuss on the dichotomy between possible and real actions.
