| AIR QUALITY AND HEALTH
IN BRAZILIAN CITIES
Air pollution kills around 51,000
Brazilians every year. To shed light
on the problem and how to face it,
the Climate Program conducted "The
State of Air Quality in Brazil" study,
the most robust analysis ever made
of what's known on how air quality
and health affect one another in
Brazil. The study identified gaps in
economics and public policies and
pointed out how the country could
advance in controlling air pollution.
The WRI Brasil-coordinated process
involved intense engagement and
welcomed 14 experts from the
International Council on Clean
Transportation - Brazil (ICCT Brasil),
Amazon Environmental Research
Institute (IPAM), Institute of Health
and Sustainability (ISS), Instituto
Clima e Sociedade (iCS), Institute
of Astronomy, Geophysics and
Atmospheric Sciences at USP (IAG),
and Institute of Physics at USP
(IFUSP), COPPE/UFRJ, Institute for
Health Policy Studies (IEPS), and
Fluminense Federal University (UFF).
