Occupational exposure to other air contaminants

B. whereas air pollution causes over 430 000 premature deaths in the EU yearly and costs up to an estimated EUR 940 billion annually as a result of its health impacts; whereas NOx is a major air pollutant which causes, inter alia, lung cancer, asthma and many respiratory diseases, as well environmental degradation such as eutrophication and acidification; whereas diesel vehicle exhausts are a principal source of NOx in urban are ...[+++]as in Europe; whereas up to a third of the EU’s urban population continues to be exposed to levels above the limits or target values set by the EU; whereas transport continues to be a main contributor to poor air quality levels in cities, and to the related health impacts; whereas over 20 Member States are currently failing to meet the EU air quality limits, in particular because of urban pollution;

Q. whereas air pollution resulted in more than 430 000 people dying prematurely in the EU in 2011, and costs EUR 940 billion annually in lost productivity; whereas more than 20 Member States are failing to meet the EU air quality limits set out in Directive 2008/50/EC; whereas nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a dangerous pollutant and a precursor to several other pollutants such as ozone and particulate matter; whereas NOx and its derivatives cause lung cancer, asthma and numerous respiratory diseases, and particularly affect vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly; whereas NOx also has a severe impact on the environment and is r ...[+++]esponsible for acidification, eutrophication and the degradation of materials; whereas diesel vehicle exhaust is a principal source of NOx in urban areas in Europe; whereas NOx acts as an indirect greenhouse gas;
