Air pollution is a health and environmental issue across all countries of the world but with large differences in severity. In the interactive map, we show death rates from air pollution across the world, measured as the number of deaths per 100,000 people in a given country or region.
WHO monitors the exposure levels and health impacts (i.e. deaths, DALYs) of air pollution at the national, regional and global level from ambient (outdoor) and household air pollution. Such estimates are used for official reporting like the world health statistics, and the Sustainable Development Goals.
This article published in the WHO bulletin in 2023, presents an overview of close to 50 years of WHO's activities in gathering air quality data and their use in global assessments and efforts to reduce health risks caused by air pollution.
The 2022 update (Fifth Version) database was released in April 2022 and hosts data on air quality for over 600 human settlements in more than 100 countries. The data compiled in this database is used as input to derive the Sustainable Development Goal Indicator 11.6.2, Air quality in cities, for which WHO is custodial agency.
In the State of Global Air 2024 interactive app, you can explore, compare, and download data and graphics reflecting the latest air pollution levels and associated burden of disease for over 200 individual countries, territories, and regions, as well as track trends from 1990 to 2021.
Contents. Outdoor air pollution is one of the world's largest health and environmental problems – one that tends to worsen for countries as they industrialize and transition from low to middle incomes. The Global Burden of Disease study estimates that millions of deaths are attributed to outdoor air pollution.1.
