Pollution from man-made emissions and other sources like wildfires have been linked to around 135 million premature deaths worldwide between 1980 and 2020, a Singapore university said Monday.

The study by Greenpeace Southeast Asia Analysis and Swiss firm IQAir measured air quality by recording the concentration of poisonous PM2.5 particles, which are less than 2.5 microns in diameter and can cause deadly diseases, including cancer and cardiac problems.

The filter is fitted on the roof of the bus and is made in an "engine barrier-type filter construction" which is designed for particle removal efficiency without impacting the passengers or their travel.Air pollution causes an estimated 40,000 early deaths in the UK every year, due to which a clean air strategy has been launched by the government.

Change in climate leads to increased amounts of ground - level ozone and fine particle that further impacts human health. Although fine particles and ground level ozone occur naturally, human beings have increased them considerably.These fine particles will remain in the air for a long time when there is less rain. When it does not rain the harmful...

China and India account for 55 percent of yearly global deaths from air pollution. Some 1.6 million people died of air pollution in China in 2013, while India saw 1.4 million deaths.

More than 5.5 million people worldwide die prematurely every year due to household and outdoor air pollution, and India and China together account for 55 per cent of these deaths, new research has found.

It also said tobacco use, both in smoke and smokeless forms accounts for 22 percent of cancer deaths globally and is a "leading" cause of the disease in the region.
