Key messages
• Many air pollutants also affect temperature increase and climate change.
• Well-chosen portfolios of measures can deliver near-term health benefits while slowing down temperature increase.
• The UN Env/CCAC Asian Solutions Assessment identified 25 measures that can – provide clean air to 1 billion people in Asia, – reduce global temperature increase by ~0.3°C in 2050, and – contribute to numerous SDGs in the region.
• Effective action – must involve sectors that are not yet in the focus of air quality management
in many countries, and – needs to be embedded in development policies.
