According to this paper published in Environmental Research (2021) as discussed in this article. This is the very definition of genocide yet we're conditioned not to see that reality because it's just the cost of doing business. We must wake up and demand that our governments aggressively take up renewable energy and quickly phase out fossil fuels. These unnecessary and intentional deaths are simply not acceptable in any humane society.
"Air pollution caused by the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil was responsible for 8.7m deaths globally in 2018, a staggering one in five of all people who died that year, new research has found. Countries with the most prodigious consumption of fossil fuels to power factories, homes and vehicles are suffering the highest death tolls, with the study finding more than one in 10 deaths in both the US and Europe were caused by the resulting pollution, along with nearly a third of deaths in eastern Asia, which includes China. Death rates in South America and Africa were significantly lower."
