Ozone depends on temperature and the greenhouse gas methane from cattle and biomass. Pollen presence depends on temperature and carbon dioxide. The effect of climate change on particulate air pollution is complex, but the likely net effect is greater health risks. Reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions by reduced livestock production and use of combustion for energy production, transport and heating will also improve air quality. Energy savings in buildings and use of carbon dioxide neutral fuels should not deteriorate indoor and outdoor air quality. | | Language | DAN | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
