Well Said

Each year, millions of people die from exposure to air pollution. And if unaddressed, climate change could bring those numbers up even higher by the end of the century. Carolina researcher Jason West predicts that the climate change's effect on air pollution could actually cause 260,000 more premature deaths in 2100. In this week's episode, we talk about climate change and air quality with West, an associate professor of environmental sciences and engineering in the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health.
