The Latest Data: Air Pollution’s Impact on Life Expectancy
Every year, EPIC’s Air Quality Life Index (AQLI) releases its latest data showing the impact of air pollution on life expectancy. Through the AQLI’s hyper-local data, users anywhere on Earth can zoom into their district and see how much longer they would live if policies were to reduce pollution to meet the World Health Organization’s guideline, a national standard, or a user-defined target. This information can help inform local communities and policymakers about the benefits of air pollution policies in perhaps the most important measure that exists: longer lives.
On September 3, AQLI’s director Tanushree Ganguly and EPIC’s Clean Air Program director Christa Hasenkopf unpacked the main findings from the AQLI 2024 report on pollution’s impact on life expectancy as well as the state of pollution standards across the globe. They were joined by EPIC’s Clean Air Champions Chetan Bhattacharji and Sarath Guttikunda, Washington University in St. Louis’ Aaron Van Donkelaar, and the World Health Organization’s Heba Safi for a moderated discussion around the findings.
The new report and webinar came just ahead of the world community’s commemoration of International Day of Clean Air on September 7.

Air pollution is the number one health risk to humankind, with EPIC’s Air Quality Life Index (AQLI) showing that the burden of pollution on life expectancy outstrips that of malaria, HIV/AIDS and transportation injuries combined. While research shows that installing air quality monitors and sharing real-time data with the public in places with very little or no data leads to cleaner air, nearly...

    In India, air pollution levels are highest in levels with full content of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Failure of arresting black smoke vehicles and boiler stack emissions, not ban coal quarries, not making project on carbon capture leads to India's citizens Air pollution impact Life expectancy and cause cancer in every household families . Difficult to reach Paris agreement 2030 and sustainable development goals.

    COP (security) on climate global warming. It is started in 1995 in Berlin if i do not make a mistake. The following one was in Italy. Climatologist are proceeding to this observations. This issue wil proceed if we are not collaborating together to resolve this phenomena. What triggers it is ongoing wars or special operations. People must kindly learn to forgive each other. This is unacceptable. It is not healthy to live like this as human beings. All those who are involved. Kindly go back to senses. You can not quench fire by fire, but you can use fire estinguisher for calmn the furnace of blaze of fire. Is this a lesson that elders are passing to youth. Are we teaching our children to take weapons to resolve things here on earth? What is the main cause of human beings to like map of blood on top of the earth than to live in peace & harmony. It will be escalating this weather. Until we are doing what is right, it be worse. Air pollution is proceeding we must expect worse all of us. We will suffer the consequenses of what we are planting right now. Bapetite must be essential. We need to be matured to resoved disputes.
