Washington, March 8 (RHC)-- The Donald Trump administration has halted an international air quality monitoring program that sampled pollution levels at more than 80 U.S. embassies and consulates, due to what the State Department called “budget constraints.” 

The program is credited with identifying soaring levels of fine particulate pollution around the U.S. Embassy in Beijing in 2013, right before China launched its so-called war against pollution.
