India’s toxic air killed 1.24m people in 2017
Background:
India’s air pollution killed 1.24 million people in 2017, or 12.5 percent of all recorded deaths for the year, according to a study published in the Lancet Planetary Health.
More than half (51.4%) of the victims who died from air pollution were younger than 70, the report said, “including 0·67 million (0·55–0·79) from ambient particulate matter pollution and 0·48 million (0·39–0·58) from household air pollution.”
Some 14 of the 15 cities with the worst air pollution in the world are in India, according to the WHO database of air pollution.
