Policies to reduce GHGs will also cut air pollution. Meeting India's 2030 & 2070 climate targets announced at COP26 can cut both CO2 & PM10 by 70% compared to the BAU in 2050 and avoid ~60 lakh premature deaths due to air pollution over the next 3 decades

There is also an equity connection between climate change & air pollution. The IPCC sixth assessment report pointed out that the richest 10% households are responsible for 36-45% of global GHG emissions, while the bottom half account for only 13-15%.
