The Chinese government has made great efforts to combat air pollution through the reductions in SO2, NOx and VOCs emissions, as part of its socioeconomic Five-Year Plans (FYPs). China aims to further reduce the emissions of VOCs and NOx by 10% in its upcoming 14th FYP (2021–2025). Here, we used a regional chemical transport model (e.g., WRF/CMAQ) to examine the responses of PM2.5 and O3 to emission control policies of the 14th FYP in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region. The simulation results under the 4 emission control scenarios in the 2 winter months in 2025 indicate that the average concentrations of city mean PM2.5 in 41 cities in the YRD were predicted to only decrease by 10% under both S1 and S1_E scenarios, whereas the enhanced emission control scenarios (i.e., S2_E and S3_E) could reduce PM2.5 in each city by more than 20%. The model simulation results for O3 in the 3 summer months in 2025 show that the O3 responses to the emission controls under the S1 and S1_E scenarios show different control effects on O3 concentrations in the YRD with the increase and decrease effects, respectively. The study found that both enhanced emission control scenarios (S2_E and S3_E) could decrease O3 in each city by more than 20% with more reductions in O3 under the S3_E emission control scenario because of its higher control strengths for both NOx and VOCs emissions. It was found that emission reduction policies for controlling high emission sectors of NOx and VOCs such as S2_E and S3_E were more effective for decreasing both PM2.5 and O3 in the YRD. This study shows that O3 controls will benefit from well-designed air pollution control strategies for reasonable control ratios of NOx and VOCs emissions.

The effective use of persuasive technology in social media can influence behaviour change. By 2020, 88.7% of Malaysians were active internet users, and various social media platforms to change users' behaviour had emerged via the internet. This paper examines how persuasive technology has been used in Malaysian health care and behaviour change over the past ten years. The goal is to discover how well technology has been used to change people's behaviour. The findings of this paper anticipate an in-depth study about underexplored topics, such as the most effective strategy to embed PT in Social Media applications to improve health.

AbstractThe pledge of achieving carbon peak before 2030 and carbon neutrality before 2060 is a strategic decision that responds to the inherent needs of China's sustainable and high-quality development, and is an important driving force for promoting China's ecological civilization constructions. As the consumption of fossil fuel energy is responsible for more than 90% of China's greenhouse gases emissions, policies focusing on energy transition are vital for China accomplishing the goal of carbon neutrality. Considering the fact that China's energy structure is dominated by fossil fuels, especially coal, it is urgent to accelerate the low-carbon transition of the energy system in a relatively short time, and dramatically increase the proportion of clean energy in the future energy supply. Although China has made notable progress in the clean energy transition in the past, its path to carbon neutrality still faces many significant challenges. During the process of energy transformation, advanced technologies and greater investment will play essential parts in this extensive and profound systemic reform for China's economy and society. In the meantime, these changes will create immense economic opportunities and geopolitical advantages.
