The costs, health and economic impact of air pollution control . . . While the evidence base strongly supports that lowering exposure to air pollution is beneficial to health and reduces the burden on health systems, air pollution control strategies often come at significant costs
What are the economic impacts of air pollution? - Clarity Air pollution is responsible for significant economic losses, including those for healthcare expenditures and environmental damage However, the economic gains associated with improving air quality far outweigh these costs
BOUNDS, BENEFITS, AND BAD AIR - National Bureau of Economic Research Importantly, our estimates are net of the welfare loss due to avoidance behavior Our analysis contributes directly to two strands of literature The first strand focuses on the health impacts of air-quality alerts In seminal work, Neidell (2009) exploited high-frequency time-series variation to demonstrate that minors with asthma benefited from
Does Air Pollution Aggravate Health Problems in Low-Income . . . - MDPI Air pollution has a huge impact on the health and disease of people around the world, especially in countries along the Belt and Road, which are mostly low-income countries, and the mortality and mental health problems caused by air pollution are more serious
Estimating the morbidity from air pollution and its economic costs WHO has created a new project, called Estimating the Morbidity from Air Pollution and its Economic Costs (EMAPEC), to provide expert technical and advisory support on the adverse health effects of air pollution and the different morbidities it causes
Measuring Loss in Human Welfare Caused by Air Pollution: A CGE Analysis To evaluate the socio-economic impacts of air pollution, we develop an integrated approach based on computable general equilibrium (CGE) Applying our approach to 18 western European countries shows that even there, where air quality is relatively high compared with other parts of the world, health- related damages caused by air pollution may
Household Air Pollution and Noncommunicable Disease In this summary based on HEI Communication 18, we present the main conclusions about exposures to household air pollu-tion and about its contribution to noncommunicable diseases globally
