Korean study forecasts 110000 premature deaths by 2050 due to PM25 and aging
Korean study forecasts 110000 premature deaths by 2050 due to PM25 and aging- A new study from the Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) indicates that fine particulate matter, which is less than 2.5 µm in diameter (PM2.5), is increasingly impacting the rapidly aging Korean population. Due to this population aging, PM2.5-related premature deaths are projected to be more than three times higher by 2050 than they are today if PM2.5 exposure persists.
