Details

The cost of air pollution tool quantifies the potential costs to the NHS and social care due to the health impacts of particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in England and separately for each local authority.

The tool has the ability to test different 鈥榳hat if鈥� scenarios for the reduction of air pollution, such as a given reduction in the levels of air pollution on the future impact of health and related cost. The outputs include the number of disease prevalence cases and costs avoided due to a given scenario relative to a baseline (鈥榥o change鈥�) scenario.

The accompanying report describes the methodology and data used in the analyses and provides results for England and 2 local authorities, namely Lambeth (inner city London) and South Lakeland (Cumbria), to represent 2 extremes in air pollutant concentrations.
