According to the World Economic Forum, 99% of the world’s population experiences air pollution levels exceeding WHO guidelines.
But recent studies have shown that air pollution doesn’t just impact our lungs, but can also lead to heart attacks and strokes.
Joining Jonathan to discuss is Annette Peters, Chair of Epidemiology at the Faculty of Medicine at LMU Munich, Director of the Institute of Epidemiology, Helmholtz Zentrum München, and Visiting professor at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Boston.
