are independent of GHG reductions and claiming that they are/will
be a consequence of GHG measures is disingenuous.
(David Jackson, McMaster University)
12 A 11 36 11 41 Could the health benefits here be quantified?
(Government of UK)
12 A 11 36 11 38 Norway has recently carried out an cost-effectiveness analysis on
GHG where local effects on air pollution has been taken into
consideration.
(Government of Norwegian Pollution Control Authority)
12 A 11 36 11 41 " While studies use different methodologies, there is…….large cost
reductions". In explaining this (point 12), it is vital to remind the
asymmetry in co-benefits of air quality and climate change
measures. We suggest adding the following at the end ..."There is
however significant asymmetry in the co-benefits from the
standalone air pollution and climate change measures. The
standalone air quality measures, such as for instance the scrubbing
of sulfur dioxide emissions from coal power plants, have delivered
little or no climate change mitigation. The carbon mitigation from
the same plants through higher efficiency equipments or fuel
switching, on the other hand, deliver substantial sulfur dioxide
mitigation".

There are multiple costs of illness and mortality associated with
acute and chronic respiratory diseases related to climate change and
to rising CO2. Warming and heat waves increases ground-level
