Air pollution is a growing problem in developing countries, and there exists a wide range of
evidence documenting the large health and productivity losses associated with high …

Among industrialised countries, fine particle (PM 2.5) and ozone levels in the Sydney
metropolitan area of Australia are relatively low. Annual mean PM 2.5 levels have …

Ambient fine particulate matter< 2.5 µm (PM2. 5) air pollution increases premature mortality
globally. Some PM2. 5 is natural, but anthropogenic PM2. 5 is comparatively avoidable. We …

Ambient air pollution is a major contributor to mortality and morbidity. Fine particulate matter
(PM2. 5) is especially harmful to human health. Globally, exposure to ambient PM2. 5 …

National estimates of the health and economic burdens of exposure to ambient fine
particulate matter (PM 2.5) in India reveal substantial impacts. This information, often lacking …

This paper is a first attempt at calculating the cost of air pollution in Africa. More precisely, it
is a calculation of the major part of this cost: namely, the cost of premature deaths …

Emissions of fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) from human activities have been linked to
substantial disease burdens, but evidence regarding how reducing PM2. 5 at its sources …

Background The acute health effects of short-term (hours to days) exposure to fine
particulate matter (PM 2· 5) have been well documented; however, the global mortality …

Introduction Worldwide, air pollution has become a main environmental cause of premature
mortality. This burden is largely due to fine particles. Recent cohort studies have confirmed …

Aim: This paper assesses the magnitude of health impacts and economic costs of fine
particulate matter (PM) air pollution in the Republic of Macedonia. Methods: Ambient PM10 …
