Nearly 50 million people, including health professionals and advocates, have signed a call for urgent action to reduce air pollution. The call, spearheaded by the WHO, will be presented at the Second Global Conference on Air Pollution and Health. Air pollution, a major environmental threat, causes 7 million deaths annually and contributes to climate change. The health community urges governments to reduce emissions, enforce stricter standards, and transition to cleaner energy. Countries are expected to commit to concrete measures at the conference.
