"Next week, WHO and the Government of
#Colombia, together with other partners, will host the Second Global Conference on
#AirPollution and Health, in Cartagena.
Every year, around 7 million people die from air pollution, mainly from respiratory and cardiovascular diseases.
Many cities and countries are showing that change is possible, but progress is too slow.
We call on all countries to make bold and achievable commitments at next week’s conference to reduce air pollution and save lives"-
