In photos, it's hard to make out Hong Kong through the thick, gray haze.
Smog, made worse by winter weather conditions and wind, has blanketed the city. The coastal skyline is barely visible, and ships in the region's busy harbor appear veiled like ghosts.
According to World Air Quality Index, the city is experiencing unhealthy levels of air pollution. This assessment is based on hourly measurements of pollutants like particulate matter and carbon.
Studies of particulate matter show exposure causes serious health conditions like heart and lung disease. When inhaled, the small particles are lodged in lungs and can enter the bloodstream.
This week's conditions are a reminder of how far the country still has to go to improve its historically bad air pollution.
In Hong Kong, a clean air plan was put in place in 2013 to tackle the three biggest contributors to the city's bad air: power plants, marine vessels, and motor vehicles.
Street-level pollution from diesel vehicles has been a particularly pervasive health issue for the more than seven million people that live in Hong Kong.
A 2016 plan to address street-level pollution has been effective in reducing roadside air pollutants, according to the Hong Kong government's environmental agency website.
