Climate change and air pollution could risk 30 million lives annually by 2100

Mortality attributable to air pollution and extreme temperatures is a major concern, and it is expected to heighten in the future. In a new study led by the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, an international research team found that, under the most probable projection, annual mortality rates linked to air pollution and extreme temperatures could reach 30 million by the end of the century. Mortality attributable to air pollution and extreme temperatures is a major concern, and it is expected to heighten in the future.
