Recital 15
(15) In order to protect human health and the environment as a whole, it is particularly important to combat emissions of pollutants at source and to identify and implement the most effective emission reduction measures at local, national and Union level , in particular when it comes to emissions from agriculture, industries, transport, heating and energy generation . Therefore, emissions of harmful air pollutants should be avoided, prevented or reduced and appropriate standards set for ambient air quality taking into account relevant World Health Organization standards, guidelines and programm. Member States shall consider the cost-effectiveness of measures and the best available technologies available for the mitigation of pollutants at the source, such as filtering technologies, when identifying emission reduction measures.

Recital 18
(18) The average exposure of the population to the pollutants with the highest documented impact on human health, fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), should be reduced based on WHO recommendations. This could be done by using best available technologies as identified by the 2022 EU Clean Air Tech Hub report.To this end, an average exposure reduction obligation should be introduced for these pollutants, in addition to limit values.
