- Today I begin, a series of facts and images that at first glance are breathtaking, but hide terrible motives. Check out!
Many people still believe that climate change and global warming are nothing more than mere speculation. But the great truth is that the evidence is more and more glaring. Images like snow on the sand dunes in the Sahara can leave a lot of people impressed. Or make them judge whether it is a mere edit in photoshop. But the truth is that it's all real, and perhaps more chaotic and surreal than you think.
- Pollution is the third leading cause of death in France
Air pollution is responsible for the deaths of 42,000 people every year in France. Making it clear that air pollution is a public health problem and also the third leading cause of death in France behind cigarettes and alcohol.
- Pollution is a daily problem
The disregard for air quality standards imposed by the World Health Organization (UN) was recorded in 100 of the 365 days, that is, one every three days.
- Health risks
Four air pollutants are particularly hazardous to health: fine particles (PM10 and PM2,5), nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, and ozone. The list of diseases that these emissions can cause is long: chronic bronchitis, asthma, lung cancer, stroke, myocardial infarction or even, in pregnant women, placental problems. Pollution is estimated to result in each year in about 42,000 deaths in France and 386,000 in Europe, according to studies by the European Commission.
