Air Pollution - 2 millions deaths annually

Co-author of the study, Jason West, from the University of North Carolina, said: "Our estimates make outdoor air pollution among the most important environmental risk factors for health. Many of these deaths are estimated to occur in East Asia and South Asia, where population is high and air pollution is severe." 

Not only in these countries. Come to Tasmania, Australia when forestry is burning it's waste and back yard burning is being carried out to save money. 

Thank you for the article and for the study.
