• UK population lost 340,000 years of life in 2008• This loss of life is equivalent to 29,000 deaths (40,000)• the average loss of life would have been 2 years, (though the actual amount would vary between individuals).•The burden can also be represented as a loss of life expectancy from birth (for everyone) of 6 months in susceptible populations

What about short term effects?What about other pollutants?
Short & long-term effects

Black Carbon – a better health indictor? Toxic component or source indicator?

Estimated county- and season-specific relative risks (RR) of cardiovascular and respiratory hospitalization associated with PM2.5 components in 106 U.S. counties for the years 1999 through 2005
Systematic review and meta-analysis of health effects of BC compared with PM mass based on data from time-series studies and cohort studies that measured both exposures
