Abstract

Health impacts of air pollution in Birmingham: WM Air Briefing Note B34-CS-2023-07, June 2023. WM-Air - Clean Air Science for the West Midlands (wm-air.org.uk) is a NERC funded initiative, led by the University of Birmingham. The programme, in collaboration with over 20 cross sector partners, applies environmental science expertise to support improvement of air quality, health, environmental and economic benefits, in the West Midlands. Research conducted by WM-Air has quantified the impacts of air pollution in Birmingham on a range of health conditions – including asthma, heart disease, stroke, lung cancer and risk of early death. Calculations were performed using the Air Quality Life Assessment Tool (AQ-LAT) developed within the WM-Air programme.
