Particulate air pollution is generally agreed upon to be harmful to long-term health, particularly from sources prevalent in poorer regions of the world such as the smoke from wood fires used for cooking. Exposure to these airborne particles raises the burden of chronic inflammation, thus accelerating the onset and progression of all of the common age-related diseases, including cardiovascular disease and dementia, and increasing age-related mortality. The mechanism is fairly cut and dried, but the size of the effect on mortality is up for debate, as is often the case. Just how many deaths does it cause?
