Delays in cleaning up EU air will cause thousands more early deaths, say health experts https://t.co/9SLBPVBAw6

[ISGlobal @ISGLOBALorg]

💵🫁The economic costs of unhealthy air are greater than the costs of taking action to improve #AirQuality.

🇪🇺⚠️Delays in implementing stricter air quality directives will lead to greater economic and health costs for EU member states.

The rejection of the law was avoided but at a very high cost: the ambition to #RestoreNature has been substantially cut down👎
