“In new estimates released today, WHO reports that in 2012 around 7 million people died – one in eight of total global deaths – as a result of air pollution exposure. This finding more than doubles previous estimates and confirms that air pollution is now the world’s largest single environmental health risk. Reducing air pollution could save millions of lives.”

  6. OK, how can you say "America's levels RARELY reach 300μg/m2" in such a way as to make it sound like it's not a problem? It's still 60% that of China, and we all know China AND America are the BIGGEST polluters of the world 🌏 And I'm not sure you understand how devastating that 60% really is by making it sound so trivial when it's far from it!
