Studies spanning over a decade have linked California wildfire smoke exposure to over 52,000 premature deaths and at least $432 billion in losses. Air pollution globally has caused around 135 million premature deaths between 1980 and 2020. Smoke from wildfires, even hundreds of miles away, contributes to nearly 16,000 deaths annually. Fine particulate matter pollution from California wildfires from 2008 to 2018 led to 52,500 to 55,700 premature deaths in the state.
It’s #SmokeReady Week! Smoke from wildfires and other sources can have serious health impacts, particularly for children, the elderly, and people with pre-existing heart and lung conditions. https://t.co/eurHN5VLZN
