BEIJING — Beijing said Monday it has already reached its target number of 256 “blue-sky days” this year, with the help of ambitious environmental measures the city imposed to cut emissions for the Olympic Games. China's notoriously polluted capital of 17 million reached the clean-air day target on Sunday, 31 days ahead of schedule, Beijing's Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau said.

“The quality of our city's air has shown constant improvement over the last 10 years,” Du Shaozhong, deputy director of the bureau, said in a statement.

Beijing had only 100 blue-sky days in 1998, when it introduced a clean-air campaign and began investing more than $15-billion to improve air quality, the official Xinhua News Agency said.
