Beijing has extended its ban on operating outdoor barbecues from the city center outward to se-lected suburbs,according to municipal authorities.

A year ago,Beijing banned restaurants from operating outdoor barbecues within the fourth ring road area.And now,the ban has extended to several suburbs,including Mentougou,Fangs-han,Tongzhou,Shunyi,Daxing,Pinggu and Miyun.

The barbecue ban was announced to reduce Beijing′s air pollution,as barbecue has long been accused as one of the major contributors to haze.

According to Wang Yuesi,a researcher from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Chinese Academy of Sciences,barbecuing can generate a lot of PM 2.5,harmful airborne particles measur-ing less than 2.5 microns in diameter.

"Considering the seriousness of the air pollution in Beijing,we have to ban everything that may do harm to our environment!"Wang said.

The issue has divided Chinese netizens,as half agreed with the policy while the other half called this grand plan nothing but"empty talk."

"Why A sample of comments from Weibo:don′t those petrochemical plants,power stations and other heavy industries be banned?What is the Ministry of Environmental Protection going to do next?We still need to eat,so please allow us to cook!""Right decisions to resolve PM2.5 pollution problems,the option which made by governors is legalistic reserve for'public profits′courses,"some people said.

Beijing has released many roles and policies to deal with the most eye-catching environmental issues now--smog.Recently,a new regulation was announced that the region of banning of outdoor barbecues is going to be ex-tended from the downtown to countryside.

The government claims barbecue causes great air pollution and is the major culprit of environmentally harmful substances to the air which meet that standard of PM 2.5.

This policy caused great controversy among the citizens in those areas.

Some advocates are willing to give up their rights of enjoying the outdoor barbecue,in order to make contribution to the environment.But the others tagged this policy as"empty talk",as they are more concerned about the pollution from the chemical toxins from the heavy industries.

In my opinion,it is essential to take some steps to protect the environ-ment in Beijing.We should support it if this measure show the function that keeps the air cleaner.What is more,to eat less barbecue is not a bad idea,as barbecue is not healthy.

据北京市有关部门表示，北京已将户外烧烤禁令从市中心延长至周边郊区。

一年前，北京禁止餐馆在四环路地区经营户外烧烤。现在，禁令已经延伸到几个郊区，包括门头沟、方山、通州、顺义、大兴、平谷和密云。

烧烤禁令宣布减少北京′s空气污染,烧烤一直指责如烟雾的一个主要因素。

据中国科学院大气物理研究所研究员王跃思介绍，烧烤可以产生大量的pm2.5，这些有害颗粒物直径小于2.5微米。

“考虑到北京空气污染的严重性，我们必须禁止一切可能对环境有害的行为!”王说。

这一问题在中国网民中引起了分歧，一半人同意这一政策，另一半人则称这一宏伟计划只是“空话”。

“为什么一个样本来自微博的评论:不要′石化工厂,发电厂和其他重工业被禁止?环保部下一步将做什么?我们还需要吃饭，所以请允许我们做饭吧!”“正确的决定来解决PM2.5污染问题,由州长的选项是法律公众利润′系统能够准备课程,”有人说。
