Air Pollution From Wildfires Kills 1.5 Million Annually, Over 90% in Developing Countries: Study

A new study reveals that air pollution from wildfires causes 1.5 million deaths annually, with over 90% of fatalities occurring in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in Southeast Asia, South Asia, East Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. The pollutants fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone (O3) are linked to severe health issues, including respiratory diseases and cardiovascular problems. The study highlights the disproportionate impact on disadvantaged communities and the growing threat from climate change, which lengthens wildfire seasons and increases the severity of fires. Urgent action is needed to address the health impacts and environmental injustices exacerbated by global warming.
