Air Pollution and Climate Change

Reducing black carbon emissions benefits both climate and health 4 Research concludes that reducing black carbon emissions would prevent millions of premature deaths as well as helping meet climate change mitigation targets. Do climate policies need a ‘pollution safety margin’? 5 Climate change policies may need to make greater GHG reductions in order to accommodate the warming of reduced air p...

Climate change and air pollution

e observational evidence indicates that recent regional changes in climate, particularly temperature increases, have already a ected a diverse set of physical and biological systems in many parts of the world. Allergens patterns are also changing in response to climate change and air pollution can modify the allergenic potential of pollen grains especially in the presence of speci c weather con...

International Collaboration on Air Pollution and Pregnancy Outcomes (ICAPPO)

Reviews find a likely adverse effect of air pollution on perinatal outcomes, but variation of findings hinders the ability to incorporate the research into policy. The International Collaboration on Air Pollution and Pregnancy Outcomes (ICAPPO) was formed to better understand relationships between air pollution and adverse birth outcomes through standardized parallel analyses in datasets from d...

Chronic bronchitis and urban air pollution in an international study.

OBJECTIVES The chronic effects of urban air pollution are not well known. The authors' aim was to investigate the association between the prevalence and new onset of chronic bronchitis and urban air pollution. METHODS Subjects from the general population randomly selected for the European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS I) during 1991-93 in 21 centres in 10 countries were followed ...
