Clearing the air: Which pollution source matters most for health?
Targeted interventions can significantly reduce air pollution-related mortality. Replacing residential wood stoves and fully electrifying vehicles are particularly effective, with distinct benefits for PM<sub>2.5</sub>- and chronic NO<sub>2</sub>-related health outcomes. A multi-sectoral approach is essential to maximize public health gains.
