For organisms living on land, "breathing" which breathes air and breathes is one that can not be missed from birth to death. Air that is a lifetime companion, like food and drinks, wants to capture as clean as possible, but from the latest research, indeed 95% of people living all over the world are taking WHO (World Health Organization ) Defined by "Air Quality Guidelines(Air Quality Guideline) ", it is clear that they live by sucking in inappropriate air.

The Health Effects Institute (HEI), based in the state of Massachusetts, USA, announces an annual report that summarizes air pollution status around the world that was surveyed based on the air quality guidelines set by WHO did. According to its contents, about 7 billion people, which is 95% of the world's population, are constantly sucking dirty air and living their lives. In addition, 6.1 million people died young all over the world due to air pollution, and it has also been shown that the main causes of death are heart attacks, lung cancer, and chronic lung disease. In the following figures, the air pollution status is color-coded, but it shows that pollution degree is high in China, India, and Africa where most of the world's population concentrates.


It has also been shown that this situation is getting worse than in the past. In the survey in 2014, it was found that "92% of the people in the world are sucking dirty air that does not meet the standards set by WHO", but in this result 95% and 3 points I know that it is increasing.

"Air pollution" shown here means a state where fine particles such as sulfur, nitric acid, ammonia, sodium chloride, black carbon (black carbon), mineral powder, etc. are contained in the atmosphere. According to the WHO guidelines, the level of particulates allowed to be included per cubic meter of air is specified, but in fact 95% of the world contains fine particles that are beyond safe standards set by guidelines Has been confirmed.

Classification of the cause of death for all generations of men and women around the world classifies high blood pressure, smoking, high fasting plasma glucose concentration, etc. in the upper part, It shows that air pollution caused by burning charcoal or solid fuel at households is included.


When asking "air pollution", it is often thought that there are many occurrences in large cities where many automobiles concentrate and industrial areas where factories emit smoke, but in this report wood, solid fuel, animal fung etc. It is shown that severe air pollution is occurring also by burning. Mr. Bob O'Keefe, Deputy Director of HEI, said, "All air pollution problems will damage individuals, making it difficult for people with a disorder in the respiratory system to breathe and by giving young and old children to the hospital, It has resulted in getting into work and getting the result of early death.The result of this time is that the problems are getting worse in some parts of the world and we will not confront this solvable problem It is shown that it is not necessary.
