flag Limiting warming to 2°C could prevent over 13.5 million air pollution deaths by 2050, especially in poorer nations, if wealthier countries lead emission cuts and support clean tech.

flag Limiting global warming to 2°C could prevent over 13.5 million air pollution-related deaths by 2050, mostly in low- and middle-income countries, a study in The Lancet Global Health finds. flag Researchers from The University of Texas at Austin and others analyzed climate strategies, showing that cutting emissions where it's cheapest delivers the greatest health benefits, even if poorer nations bear more of the burden. flag Shifting more responsibility to wealthier nations reduces overall lives saved due to less fossil fuel reduction in high-pollution areas. flag The best outcomes come from combining equity-based efforts with investments in cleaner technologies in developing nations, maximizing health gains while ensuring fair burden-sharing.
