An international team of scientists, led by NTU Singapore, has linked increased air pollution to an uptick in cases of lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) worldwide. This study, done in collaboration between NTU and the Chinese University of Hong Kong, showed that a 0.1 Black carbon is a pollutant that is classified as under PM 2.5.

Jacobson, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford University, suggests that carbon capture technologies are inefficient and increase air pollution. All sorts of scenarios have been developed under the assumption that carbon capture actually reduces substantial amounts of carbon.

Major ridesourcing companies Uber and Lyft have promised all-electric fleets by 2030 in an effort to reduce their carbon footprint. Overall, electrification reduces net external costs to society by 3–11% (5–24¢ per trip), depending on the assumed social cost of carbon. —Mohan et al. Mohan et al.

The study, set in Singapore, suggests that better air quality will bring about climate co-benefits in reducing electricity generation via lower household demand, and thus mitigating carbon emissions. The reasons were two-fold: (i) increased air pollution led to households staying indoors more to mitigate the pollution impact; and (ii) PM 2.5

A new study led by researchers from Northwestern University projects that if electric vehicles replaced 25% of combustion engine cars currently on the road, the United States would save approximately $17 billion annually by avoiding damages from climate change and air pollution. Results show that in more aggressive scenarios—i.e.,
