Changing the air with Value
Context
Air pollution
Environmental risk factor for mortality in the world.
27.3% of deaths in the world are due to pollution
caused by the combustion of fossil fuels
Is the cause of one in five prematures deaths in the world.
In 2019
More than 90% of the world population live in places with exposure to fine particulate matter PM 2.5 in quantities that exceeded WHO air quality guidelines.
Problem in Mexico
Approximately 1,680 children under the age of 5 die annually due to diseases related to poor quality in Mexico.
Between 1990 and 2015, the number of deaths related with this problem increased almost 60%, due to high concentrations of pollutants in the air.
The pandemic
Has provoked that this risk to increase due to the association between high concentrations of atmospheric pollutants and covid 19.
For Cleaner Air...
Leaders from the public and private sectors have the responsability of looking for solutions
More than 80 cities in 50+ countries commited to the WHO air quality guidelines
Why?
Go in favor of the 17 SDGs (Specially 3, 7, 11 and 13)
Generate a health environment
Promote the universal right of a healthy planet
Now what?
"All forms of innovation (technological and non-tecnological) that generate a business opportunities and benefits the environment by preventingor reducing its impact, or by optimizing the use of resources"
Our Challenge
How can companies create share value and reduce their impact on air pollution?
What kind of innovations have companies implemented or are implementing to deal with the probles?
Air pollution & Climate change
PM particles (indicator of the level of air pollution) have different chemical compounds, some of which (such as black carbon), generate a rise in temperature.
Causing global Warming
Air pollution influence the quality of land and aquifers with the deposition of pollutants.
This occur trough the incorporation of pollutants into clouds.
Causes of Air pollution
Industrialization to foster development.
Mains sources of pollutants are caused by such industries as
Fertilizer
Metallurgical
Petrochemical
Transportation
Pollution from the use of fuels and polluting techniques.
To meet needs in the domestic sphere.
