Traduction de «Reduction smoking » (Anglais → Français) :

A Scottish ban on smoking in public places has now been in place for 19 months, and figures show that since the smoking ban was introduced there has been a 20% reduction in heart attack admissions to hospital.

Recent figures from Scotland show that, since the smoking ban was introduced, there has been a 20% reduction in heart attack admissions to hospital.

(3) The Council Resolution of 26 November 1996 on the reduction of smoking in the European Community(4) recognised the need for the development of an effective strategy on combating tobacco consumption, which includes certain of the elements contained in this recommendation.

Giving the existing evidence showing that exposure to environmental smoke causes increased risks of several illnesses in children and that this exposure of non-smoking women during pregnancy also causes reductions in foetal growth, the Commission fully supports tobacco control policies including measures to protect people from passive smoking like the banning of smoking in public places.

(9) Whereas reductions in emission limits applicable from the year 2000 corresponding to abatements of 30 % in emissions of carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons, NOx and particulate matter have been identified by the Auto-oil programme as key measures to achieving satisfactory medium-term air quality; whereas a reduction of 30 % in exhaust smoke opacity over that measured on current engine types and complementing Council Directive 72/306/EEC(11) will contribute to the reduction of particulate matter; whereas additional reductions in ...[+++]emission limits applicable from 2005 of 30 % carbon monoxide, total hydrocarbons and NOx and 80 % in particulates will greatly contribute to medium-term air quality benefits; whereas these reductions will take into account the effect on emissions of new test cycles that better represent the driving patterns experienced by in-service vehicles; whereas the additional NOx limit applicable from 2008 will result in a further 43 % reduction in the emission limit for this pollutant; whereas, no later than the end of 2002, the Commission is to consider the available technology with a view to confirming the mandatory NOx standard for 2008 in a report to the European Parliament and the Council, accompanied, if necessary, by appropriate proposals;

(1) Whereas the Community programme of policy and action in relation to the environment and sustainable development (4) recognizes as a fundamental principle that all persons should be effectively protected against recognized health risks from air pollution and that this necessitates in particular the control of emissions of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), particulates (PT) - black smoke, and other pollutants such as carbon monoxide (CO); whereas with regard to the prevention of tropospheric ozone (O3) formation and its associated health and environmental impact, the emissions of the precursors nitrogenoxides (NOx) and hydrocarbons (HC) must be ...[+++] reduced; whereas the environmental damage caused by acidification will also require reductions inter alia on the emission of NOx and HC;
