Researchers at the WHO say that in 2016 about 600,000 children under the age of five died from disease linked to air pollution.
Indoor cooking plays a part, as some families use unsafe fuels for cooking and keeping warm.Experts at the WHO say that there are “3.8 million deaths every year as aresult of household exposure to smoke from dirty cook-stoves and fuels.”

Dr. Schraufnagel adds that “the best way to reduce exposure to air pollution is to control it at its source.” He explains that governments need to do this by setting pollution“standards and regulatory processes.”
