Lead is a common pollutant with serious health risk upon exposure. High BP, which affects ~33% of the global population, can serve as a primary indicator of impacts from exposure. As part of the HAPIN trial, Karakwende et al. explores this relationship: bit.ly/4v6QoWK

Air pollution doesn’t just affect our lungs and hearts, it can impact our brains too. New research links PM2.5 exposure to reduced cognitive performance, learning, and memory. Protecting indoor air quality is essential for safeguarding long-term brain health. #cleancooking

Very useful new resource from @cleancooking that gives insight into how and where governments are thinking about access to cleaner cooking fuels and technologies.
Our new tracker maps how 131 low- and middle-income countries are integrating clean cooking into their climate plans. Here's where each region stands: 🌍 Sub-Saharan Africa: 98% of countries include clean cooking or household energy measures 🌏 South Asia: 100% 🌏 East Asia & the Pacific: 73% 🌎 Latin America & the Caribbean: 52% 🌍 Middle East & North Africa: 42% 🌍 Europe & Central Asia: 58% The data points to the importance of clean cooking as an energy and climate solution. Explore the full results 👉 cleancooking.org/ndc-tracker
