By the end of the century, mortality could quadruple compared to current levels and reach about 30 million people a year, even with the introduction of emission reduction measures. The mortality rate associated with air pollution will increase 5 times, and the mortality rate associated with the increased temperature of the planet will increase 7 times. Therefore, researchers have identified global warming as a more important health risk factor than air pollution for at least 20% of the world's population.
