Dirty energy threatens health of 2 billion - study
Reuters Health
Thursday, September 13, 2007
By Ben Hirschler
LONDON (Reuters) - The health of about 2 billion of the world's poor
is being damaged because they lack access to clean energy, like
electricity, and face exposure to smoke from open fires, scientists
said on Thursday.
Dangerous levels of indoor air pollutants from badly ventilated
cooking fires are a common hazard, while lack of electricity deprives
many of the benefits of refrigeration.
Paul Wilkinson of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
said the world's richest populations use up to 20 times more energy
per head than those from poor countries, posing a challenge to
improve energy supply without pollution.
Writing in the Lancet medical journal, Wilkinson and colleagues
estimated 2.4 billion people worldwide were exposed to pollution from
inefficient burning of solid fuels like wood, coal and dried cow
dung.
This causes around 1.6 million premature deaths each year -- roughly
double the level of deaths from air pollution in cities -- and many
more non-fatal cases of respiratory diseases.
At the same time, around 1.6 billion people worldwide have no
electricity.
"Paradoxically, the poor are using much less energy but they are
getting all the adverse effects," Wilkinson said in an interview.
"We in the more developed countries have access to clean energy and
are using much more of it and are contributing to the global problem
of climate change, where the main adverse effects are likely to fall,
once again, on lower-income countries."
Global warming could trigger a range of health problems including
more extreme heatwaves, increases in water-borne and insect-borne
diseases, and threats to food supplies.
Lancet editor Richard Horton said the research showed that the
current debate on climate change and new energy sources was
unbalanced and too narrow.
"It neglects a far larger set of issues focussed on energy and
health," he said.
