Description
Summary:This report provides the first national-level approximation of priority sources and actions to address air pollution while maximizing synergies with climate mitigation and managing trade-off challenges. The study uses mean population exposure as the best approximation of air quality impact currently available. It is a scoping exercise to determine the least-cost priority measures to improve air quality and identify potential key synergies or trade-offs with climate change mitigation that can be managed through coherent application of air and climate protection policies.
