US - Despite much wrangling the pollution statistics around the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles speak for themselves. Even critics of the way California has introduced clean air regulation, and these include trucking bodies who lost a Court appeal on Wednesday over the contentious issue of independents having to be employees of LA port approved organizations must admit that the quantity of atmospheric pollutants in the air has fallen dramatically with newer or newly modified vehicles mandatory and improvements in fuel grades employed by companies.
Now the same fight is being taken on by other major ports around the States.
The next phase is to see a nation wide standard for fuel. This is the only way to ensure problems are not simply transferred around the country.
