Dr Alex Barron emphasized the connection between a decarbonised society and cleaner air, asserting that the health benefits from reduced air pollution will depend heavily on policymakers' actions.
Dr Dan Loughlin pointed out that various models showed consistent evidence that decarbonisation leads to reduced air pollutants and significant long-term health benefits, particularly with renewable energy sources.
The study highlighted that while biomass can be a solution for energy, it poses problems such as increased air pollution from land clearing and fertiliser use.
A collective approach to tackle climate change and air pollution could yield astonishing health gains estimated at $65 billion to $128 billion by 2035 in the US.
