How might the data be used? Here are some insights from experts:
1/n#AirPollution accounts for more than 1 in 9 deaths globally. @SusanAnenberg, @GWpublichealth highlights the importance of publicly available #AirQuality data.
🔎We reviewed levels of #AirQuality and associated health impacts in more than 7000 cities around the world, and looked at two pollutants – fine particulate matter (PM2.5) & nitrogen dioxide (NO2) .
By 2050, almost 68% of the world's population will be living in cities and breathing urban air. And #cities are already at the front line for air pollution impacts- and interventions.
