Low- and middle-income countries have the largest health burdens associated with air pollution exposure, are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts. Substantial opportunities been identified simultaneously improve quality mitigate due overlapping sources of greenhouse gas pollutant emissions because a subset pollutants, short-lived pollutants (SLCPs), directly contribute both However, planners in low- often lack practical tools quantify impacts different policies measures. This...

Abstract Agriculture accounts for approximately 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions and is simultaneously associated with impacts on human health through food consumption, agricultural air pollutant emissions. These are often quantified separately, there a lack modelling tools to facilitate integrated assessments. This work presents new model that integrates assessment systems (i) indirectly dietary, obesity malnutrition risks from (ii) directly exposure pollutants emissions, (iii) In the...

Abstract Africa is highly vulnerable to climate change but emits a small portion of global greenhouse gases. Additionally, decarbonization might lead ‘climate penalty’ whereby reductions in cooling aerosols offset temperature benefits from CO 2 for several decades. However, impacts conditions other than temperatures, including precipitation. Using the NASA Goddard Institute Space Studies model, we find that although African emissions cuts have weak on projected they significantly impact...
