Research on Relationship Between Carbon Dioxide Emission and Mortality

Carbon dioxide emissions have become an increasingly concerning issue, leading to a variety of complex and profound consequences that touch upon environmental, economic, and health aspects. This research delves into the correlation between carbon dioxide emissions and mortality rates within urban areas of China, emphasizing the significance of air quality on public health. By employing a multiple regression analysis and utilizing cross-sectional data from 2019 across 285 cities, the study scrutinizes the influence of CO emissions, the extent of urban medical insurance enrollment, the accessibility of hospitals, and the combined effects of CO emissions and hospital accessibility on mortality figures. The study's results underscore the imperative for additional investigative efforts to dissect the complex interplay among air pollution, accessibility to healthcare services, and death rates, particularly in the context of China's swift urban development and industrial growth. This is crucial for understanding the broader implications of environmental factors on health outcomes and for formulating effective public health policies.
