Nice Overview Scientific American June 2014

  • WHO concluded once-and-for-all that diesel exhausts do in fact cause cancer;
  • MIT’s Laboratory for Aviation and the Environment found that about 200,000 Americans die a premature death each year due to air pollution, with road transport being the most significant with 53,000 premature deaths;
  • A recent report from the OECD found that outdoor air pollution kills more than 3.5 million people per year, worldwide, and about half of that is attributable to road transport.
