et al. The Lancet Commission on pollution and health.

For decades, pollution and its harmful effects on people's health, the environment, and the planet have been neglected both by governments and the international development community. Pollution is the largest environmental cause of disease and death in the world today, responsible for an estimated 9 million premature deaths in 2015.92% of all pollution-related mortality is seen in low-income and middle-income countries.A new Lancet Commission on pollution and health aims to confront and overturn this urgent predicament.The substantial health and economic costs of pollution globally can no longer be ignored.
