APEC蓝

有一种蓝叫"APEC蓝"

"APEC blue" is a popular phrase coined by China's netizens to describe the blue sky in the heavily-polluted Beijing during the APEC week, which was a result of tough emission-reduction measures. The Chinese people hope to make APEC blue a "new normal".

APEC期间,污染严重的北京市出现了久违的蓝天,中国网友戏称其为"APEC蓝".蓝天重现是严厉减排措施的结果,中国人民希望"APEC蓝"能够成为一种"新常态".

APEC期间的减排措施包括：周边城市工厂停产（the suspension of production by factories in neighboring cities）、北京及周边城市上路机动车减半（cutting the number of motor vehicles on road by half in Beijing and neighboring cities）等.

一些专家表示,要努力把'APEC蓝'留住,需要地方政府把'临时减排'变成真的不排,把'临时抱佛脚'变成自觉转变发展方式（change the development mode）,淘汰落后产能（phase out backward production capacities）.在此过程中,'发展权（the right to development）'与'健康权（the right to health）'始终在博弈.
