The main results are as follows: (1) Carbon emissions has a certain negative impact on public health, which would increase with the rise of temperature. (2) The increase in carbon emissions has a more significant negative effect on health with the average temperature exceeding 17.75掳C, ...

Public health benefits of strategies to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions: low-carbon electricity generation. In this report, the third in this Series on health and climate change, we assess the changes in particle air pollution emissions and consequent effects on ... A Markandya,BG Armstrong,S ...
Animal products were the primary contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, while vegetable products had the highest water footprint and nitrogen loss impact on the environment. Grains and cereals, the most consumed food category, significantly influenced the water footprint and nitrogen loss. ...

Our study empirically investigates the effects of the Kyoto Protocol's quantified emission limitation or reduction commitments on various greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions such as carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), methane (CH 4 ), nitrous oxide (N 2 O), and other greenhouse gases consisting of hydrofluoroca...
Mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions often reduces co-emitted air pollutants, with advantages for human health. Avoided mortality from air pollution, a co-benefit of CO2 abatement, is estimated under global climate change mitigation scenarios to be in
Emissions of criteria pollutants are regulated in the United States by the EPA (the term “criteria pollutants” comes from the EPA's establishment of criteria for ambient concentrations and emissions of these pollutants). These pollutants primarily causeadverse health effects. Thus, the locations in...
Therefore, the nutrition transition can have not only negative effects on human health but also on the environment. Our results by education level are also in line with the nutrition transition model, which indicates that such transition can differ by SES and urbanization. We observed that fast ...
