The human health benefits associated with improvements in air quality related to the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions improvements can offset 26–1,050% of the cost of US carbon policies, depending upon the type of policy, according to a new study by a team from MIT. Carbon-reduction policies significantly improve air quality.

Researchers at MIT have developed a new detailed air-quality model to simulate the effects of physical, chemical, and meteorological processing of highly reactive trace species in urban areas. Urban regions account for an ever increasing fraction of Earth’s population, and are consequently an ever increasing source of air pollutants.

PHEVLERs Provide Value to the Drivers PHEVLERs use the Existing Energy Infrastructure PHEVLERs use Clean Fuels to Reduce Air Pollution. Thus, PHEVLERs and other electric vehicles may be allowed to continue driving when governments ban fossil fuel vehicles from driving in city centers due to air pollution crises or other reasons. [
