Los beneficios sobre la salud humana compensan los costes de la aplicación del Acuerdo de París

Investigadores de BC3 (Basque Centre for Climate Change) han liderado este estudio internacional auspiciado por el programa europeo Horizon 2020. • Los resultados de este estudio publicado por The Lancet ofrecen sólidos argumentos a favor del despliegue de las medidas contempladas en los Acuerdos de París. En función de la estrategia utilizada para mitigar el cambio climático, las estimaciones sugieren que los ahorros en salud derivados de la reducción de la contaminación del aire podrían ser entre 1.4 y 2.5 veces mayores que los costos de la mitigación del cambio climático a nivel mundial. • El estudio afirma que las inversiones necesarias para implementar acciones de prevención del cambio climático en países como China e India podrían compensarse a través de los recursos obtenidos por la reducción de costes asociados a la salud.
