U.S. Air Quality and Health Benefits from Avoided Climate Change under Greenhouse Gas Mitigation.
We evaluate the impact of climate change on U.S. air quality and health in 2050 and 2100 using a global modeling framework and integrated economic, climate, and air pollution projections. Three internally consistent socioeconomic scenarios are used to value health benefits of greenhouse gas mitigation policies specifically derived from slowing climate change. Our projections suggest that climat...
متن کاملHidden Health Benefits of Greenhouse Gas Mitigation
Most public discussion of climate change has focused on long-term considerations, such as raised temperatures and sea level, extremes of weather, alterations in the ecology of infectious diseases, or radical changes in land use (1, 2). However, the same actions that can reduce the long-term buildup of greenhouse gases (GHG)--reductions in burning of fossil fuels--can also yield powerful, immedi...

متن کاملAssessing Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Co-Benefits: A Structured Review of Lifestyle-Related Climate Change Mitigation Strategies
This is the first structured review to identify and summarize research on lifestyle choices that improve health and have the greatest potential to mitigate climate change. Two literature searches were conducted on: (1) active transport health co-benefits, and (2) dietary health co-benefits. Articles needed to quantify both greenhouse gas emissions and health or nutrition outcomes resulting from...
متن کاملUncertainty in future agro-climate projections in the United States and benefits of greenhouse gas mitigation
Scientific challenges exist on how to extract information from thewide range of projected impacts simulated by cropmodels driven by climate ensembles. A stronger focus is required to understand and identify themechanisms and drivers of projected changes in crop yield. In this study, we investigate the robustness of future projections offivemetrics relevant to agriculture stakeholders (accumulat...
