Past Trends and Future Projections of Air Quality and Health Implications in Different Countries/Cities
Prudential plc, Pru Life UK’s parent company, has released the first findings from a two-year research project that examines the current state of global air quality and its health implications across 10 countries and cities, including the Philippines.
A partnership between Prudential’s ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) unit and the Earth Observatory Singapore (EOS) of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), the research project called “Climate Impacts Initiative” assesses the air quality in Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Côte d’Ivoire, Nigeria, Kenya, and the Philippines in support of Prudential’s advocacy to examine the intersection of climate change and health.
