WHO: More than 90% of the world’s population breathes polluted air

2018-06-20

The World Health Organization (WHO) stated today (February 2nd) that over 90% of the global population is breathing in high concentrations of pollutants, and poor air quality causes approximately 7 million deaths annually. New data released by the WHO shows that while air pollution is more severe in poorer countries, the problem is being addressed globally. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stated, "Air pollution threatens us all, but the poorest and most marginalized are hit hardest." This WHO study examining the health hazards of outdoor and indoor air pollution found that approximately 7 million people die each year due to exposure to particulate matter in polluted air. The study indicates that over 90% of deaths in low- and middle-income countries are related to air pollution, primarily in Asia and Africa. Maria Neira, Director of the WHO's Department of Public Health and Environment, stated, "This is a very serious problem we face." The data focuses on the dangers of hazardous particulate matter with a diameter between 2.5 and 10 micrometers (PM10, particulate matter) and particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5). PM2.5 contains toxins such as sulfates and carbon black, which pose the greatest health risk because they can penetrate deep into the lungs and cardiovascular system. According to the WHO, this can lead to respiratory illnesses such as stroke, heart disease, lung cancer, and pneumonia. Source: CSRone Sustainability Reporting Platform (2018-05-01)
