Short-Term Effects of Air Pollution on Health

Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation of Happiness Index of Nine Cities in Pearl River Delta Based on AHP

“…Environment will affect residents' well-being [22][23][24][25][26]. Environmental economists have found that the environment can improve or reduce residents' well-being by stimulating residents' senses, such as air pollution is not conducive to human health, brings constant to residents' life, and reduces residents' well-being [27][28][29]. Studies in China found that CO change emissions significantly reduced residents' happiness [30], the disclosure of the mandatory air pollution index can boost happiness [31], but pollution emissions and environmental regulations do not necessarily improve happiness [32,33], the subjective concept of air pollution has a negative impact on residents' well-being [34], urbanization construction brings about perfect living infrastructure, accelerates the development of leisure tourism, and improves the happiness of residents, the construction of urban parks increases residents' happiness [35], and higher housing prices and wage growth from urbanization have a positive impact on happiness, but it also brings traffic congestion and smog to reduce residents' happiness [36].…”

“…14 O 3 , NO 2 , and CO have been associated with cardiopulmonary hospital admissions, adverse short-term health effects and daily cardiopulmonary morbidity and mortality. 14 O 3 and NO 2 affect mainly respiratory health outcomes, whereas CO influences principally the cardiac system. 14 Similar effects of added heat wave on respiratory hospitalizations in 16 climate zones throughout California, US from May through October 1999-2009 was found.…”

“…15 Exposure to PM 10 has similar identified increases but smaller and more inconsistent effects are reported after exposure to PM COARSE (PM 10-2.5 ). 14 A recent study in China reported that PM 2.5 influenced the risks of cardiovascular hospitalization, particularly with depression among the elderly (>65 years of age) that peaked on lag day 0 (2.92;1.37-4.50) and lag day 5 (3.65;2.09-5.24) and for PM 10 , the risks peaked on lag day 0 (4.47;2.13-6.85). 16 On lag day 0, these elderly were more sensitive to PM 2.5 (9.23;5.09-13.53) and PM 10 (6.35;3.31-9.49).…”
