A new HARC report warns that Texas data centers powering generative AI could triple power-sector soot and boost NOx emissions 136% within five years, erasing decades of air quality gains unless developers adopt renewable energy onsite.
Scientists found that children's lung growth, previously stunted by air pollution, showed rapid recovery in London after the introduction of an ultra-low emission zone, suggesting clean air policies can quickly improve child health.
Research shows wildfire smoke now poses a greater prenatal health threat than human-caused air pollution, with disproportionate impacts on vulnerable communities in the West and Northwest.
A new study from the International Council on Clean Transportation finds that transitioning the US to 100% zero-emission vehicles by 2040 could prevent over 100,000 premature deaths by reducing harmful air pollutants.
This paper develops a Bayesian deep learning framework to estimate the causal effect of air pollution regulations on PM2.5 concentrations in London from 2010 to 2020, finding an average reduction of 1.88 μg/m³ (12.35%).
