Case study: Health effects of indoor air Case study: Health effects of indoor air pollution, India pollution, India
• 650 m people cook with biomass• =85% of all energy used in India• Health effects: indoor air pollution>smoking• 5-6% of total disease burden

Health impacts of climate change
Density equalling cartogram. WHO regions scaled according to estimated mortality (per million people) in the year 2000, attributable to the climate change that occurred from 1970s to 2000. Gibbs et al, in prep.

Emissions of greenhouse gases
Density equalling cartogram. Countries scaled according to cumulative emissions in billion tonnes carbon equivalent in 2002. Gibbs et al, in prep.
Cumulative emissions: the perpetratorsResearch output on health impact & adaptation

What it takes-in Europe and in South Asia
• Political will • Behavioral change by individuals & households• Technology (smart grids, smart meters..)• Research• Resource mobilization
