The Economic Case for Clean Air
Data supports the value of clean air. According to the Confederation of British Industry, meeting World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines on air pollution could add £1.6 billion to the UK economy each year. Similarly, the US Environmental Protection Agency has found that every $1 spent on air pollution control yields an estimated $30 in economic benefits. Clean air, in other words, is an economic asset. Reducing air pollution helps minimise health risks and productivity losses while promoting sustainable development and fostering new economic opportunities.
