BEIJING - Meteorological authorities in 皇冠体育app have started issuing forecasts for air pollution conditions, the 皇冠体育app Meteorological Administration (CMA) announced on Monday.

The National Meteorological Center (NMC), a department under the CMA, will be in charge of issuing the forecasts on atmospheric pollution on six grades, with the first grade meaning excellent air conditions.
