An accessible and hard-hitting look at the facts behind air
pollution in everyday life. Take a deep breath. You'll do it 20,000
times a day.You assume all this air is clean, it's the very breath
of life. But in Delhi, the toxic smog is as bad for you as smoking
50 cigarettes a day. Even a few days in Paris, London or Rome is
equivalent to two or three cigarettes.Air pollution is implicated
in six of the top ten causes of death worldwide, including lung
cancer, heart disease, stroke, and dementia. Breathless gives us
clear facts about air pollution in our everyday lives, showing how
it affects our bodies, how much of it occurs in unexpected places
(indoors, inside your car), and how you can minimise the risks.
Rooted in the latest science, including real-time air-quality
experiments in city streets and ordinary homes, it will allow you
to make up your own mind about the risks and trade-offs of modern
living - wherever in the world you are.
