This book reviews the current study of air pollution and its impact
of health on different income groups in one of the developing
countries, India. The study estimates the industrial emissions of
CO2, SO2 and NOX in India during 1983-84 to 1998-99. To evaluate
the health impacts of the pollution on different income groups the
study also carries a micro analysis for a metro city, Calcutta. The
micro analysis evaluates the extent of deterioration in air
quality, identifies the factors responsible for deterioration, and
finally makes an assessment of the impacts of deteriorated air
quality like effects on human health of different income groups.
One of the biggest tasks at present, the book concludes, is to
tackle the generation of emission by the higher income groups along
with the improvements of the health scene of the economy. It calls
for proper policy for the mitigation of the air pollution
generation from the experience of other countries.
