>The risk of developing asthma increases due to increasing of traffic-related air pollution. The risk of developing asthma increases due to increasing of traffic-related air pollution. The main high-risk group is truck drivers. Pulmonary disease and asthma

>Particulate matter increases the risk of pulmonary exacerbations and decreases the lung function. Particulate matter increases the risk of pulmonary exacerbations and decreases the lung function. Moreover everyday smoke, tobacco, auto emissions further compromise it. Cystic fibrosis

>Emission of PM2.5 (particular matter with particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers) is a Emission of PM2.5 (particular matter with particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers) is a risk factor for cancer. High concentration of nitrogen oxides increases the incidence of cancer to several times. The influence is higher for non-smokers. Cancer

>Air pollution is a risk factor for stroke, especially for people in developing countries. Air pollution is a risk factor for stroke, especially for people in developing countries. Increases the sickness rate of ischemic desease. Cardiovascular health

>A bit more of numbers 1% reduction of ambient PM2.5 and ozone concentrations A bit more of numbers 1% reduction of ambient PM2.5 and ozone concentrations would produce a $29 000 000 in annual savings only in a small Vancouver region (that is the valuation of lethal and illness effects)
