They are predominantly emitted by industrial factories, vehicle exhausts, and power plants and impact human health and agricultural and economic productivity uniquely worldwide compared to carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2<\/sub>) emissions.<\/p>\n<p>Aerosols can directly affect human health and the climate independently of CO<sub>2<\/sub>, and when inhaled, they are linked to negative health impacts. They can also influence temperature, precipitation patterns, and how much sunlight reaches the surface of the planet. During fuel combustion, aerosol and CO<sub>2&nbsp;<\/sub>emissions are often emitted simultaneously; however, the two substances behave differently in Earth\u2019s atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Geeta Persad, the co-lead author of the study and an assistant professor at the UT Austin Jackson School of Geosciences, explained: \u201cCarbon dioxide has the same impact on climate no matter who emits it. But these aerosols tend to stay concentrated near where they\u2019re emitted, so the effect they have on the climate system is very patchy and very dependent on where they\u2019re coming from.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-title\">How do aerosol emissions impact different regions?<\/h2>\n<p>The researchers analysed eight crucial regions for their air pollution investigation, including Brazil, China, East Africa, Western Europe, India, Indonesia, the US and South Africa. They discovered that the location the aerosol pollutants are emitted could exacerbate the social costs of carbon \u2013 an estimate of the economic costs greenhouse gasses have on society \u2013 by as much as 66%.<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Burney, the co-lead author from the UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy, commented: \u201cThis research highlights how the harmful effects of our emissions are generally underestimated. CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;is making the planet warmer, but it also gets emitted with a bunch of other compounds that impact people and plants directly and cause climate changes in their own right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To analyse the impacts of aerosols and CO<sub>2<\/sub>, the team developed a series of climate simulations by employing the Community Earth System Model version 1, designed by the National Center for Atmospheric Research. The researchers then performed simulations in which all eight regions had identical aerosol emissions, mapping how temperature, precipitation, and surface air quality were affected.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, the researchers applied this data to known relationships between air and climate quality, infant mortality, crop productivity, and gross domestic product in the regions. They then compared the total societal costs of these aerosol impacts against the societal costs of co-emitted CO<sub>2<\/sub>, creating global maps of the combined effects.<\/p>\n<p>The results illuminated that emissions from some regions produce air quality and climate effects that range from two to 10 times as strong as others. Moreover, societal costs sometimes affect neighbouring regions more than those producing air pollution; for example, in Europe, local emissions cause four times as many infant deaths outside the continent than in Europe. Despite the study focussing on specific regions, the team warned that aerosol emissions are always bad for the emitter and the planet overall.<\/p>\n<p>Persad concluded: \u201cWhile we might think about aerosols, which cool the climate, as having the silver lining of counteracting CO<sub>2<\/sub>-driven warming, when we look at all these effects in combination, we find that no region experiences overall local benefits or generates overall global benefits by emitting aerosols.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>From: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.innovationnewsnetwork.com\/<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New research suggests that the impacts of air pollution differ drastically depending on the location where the pollutants are emitted A study performed by researchers at&nbsp;The University of Texas at Austin&nbsp;and the&nbsp;University of California San Diego&nbsp;discovered that how significantly air pollution affects human health, economies, and agriculture varies substantially based on the region they occur.\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13339,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_scj_primary_category_id":60,"_scj_featured":false,"_scj_featured_from":"","_scj_featured_until":"","_scj_featured_order":0,"_scj_visibility_class":"current","_scj_layout_family":"standard","_scj_article_style":"","_scj_display_overrides":[],"_scj_intro_image_id":13339,"_scj_intro_alt":"How does air pollution affect where you live?","_scj_intro_caption":"","_scj_intro_class":"","_scj_intro_float":"","_scj_full_image_id":13339,"_scj_full_alt":"How does air pollution affect where you live?","_scj_full_caption":"","_scj_full_class":"","_scj_full_float":"","_scj_media_type":"","_scj_media_provider":"","_scj_media_external_id":"","_scj_media_url":"","_scj_media_poster_id":0,"_scj_media_width":0,"_scj_media_height":0,"_scj_media_aspect_ratio":"","_scj_media_description":"","_scj_gallery_items":[],"_scj_related_post_ids":[],"_scj_additional_authors":[],"scj_layout_family":"standard","scj_media_provider":"","scj_media_url":"","scj_full_caption":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[60],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13340","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sustainability"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How does air pollution affect where you live? - thesmartcityjournal.com<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A study performed by researchers at\u00a0The University of Texas at Austin\u00a0and the\u00a0University of California San Diego\u00a0discovered that how significantly air pollution affects human health, economies, and agriculture varies substantially based on the region they occur.
