New WHO has issued new Global Air Quality Guidelines (AQGs) that reduce levels of key air pollutants, some of which also contribute to climate change. Recommended 2021 AQG levels compared to 2005 air quality guidelines. When action is taken on these classical pollutants—particulate matter (PM), ozone (O?), Source: WHO.

The European Environment Agency’s (EEA’s) “ Air quality in Europe — 2019 report ” shows that almost all Europeans living in cities are still exposed to air pollution levels that exceed the health-based air quality guidelines (AQGs) set by the World Health Organization (WHO). About 8% of the urban population in the EU-28 was exposed to PM 2.5

In 2013, 87% of the world’s population lived in areas exceeding the World Health Organization (WHO) Air Quality Guideline of 10 μg/m 3 PM 2.5 Additionally, the study found that the population-weighted mean concentrations of ozone increased globally by 8.9% An additional 217,000 deaths were attributable to long-term ozone exposure.

Our study highlights the urgent need for even more aggressive strategies to reduce emissions from coal and from other sectors. They found that in 2013 there were 2.9 million deaths (5.3%
