摘要: ABSTRACT Air pollution is regarded as one of the highest priorities in environmental protection both developed and developing countries. High levels air have adverse effects on human health that might cause premature death. This study presents monetary value estimates for resulted from ambient pollution. It aids decision makers to set public relevance abatement. The main driver policymaker need reduce avoidable cardiopulmonary morbidity mortality pollutant exposures. valuation involves 2 steps: (i) relate pollutants (concentration-response relationships) (ii) apply unit economic values. Cost associated with passenger vehicles running over a major traffic bridge (6th October Elevated Highway) presented case demonstrate use proves cost ai...
