A research study reveals that phasing out fossil fuels could prevent 5.13 million deaths per year internationally connected to air contamination, mainly from cardiometabolic illness.” We estimate that 5.13 million excess deaths per year internationally are attributable to ambient air contamination from fossil fuel usage and therefore might potentially be prevented by phasing out fossil fuels,” states atmospheric chemist Jos Lelieveld, director at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry.
