“…Subsequently, we applied a Granger causality analysis based on the Bootstrap ARDL Model to determine the causal relationship between PM₂.₅, NO₂, CO carbon monoxide, and LE in Saudi Arabia from 1990 to 2022. The results indicate a negative one-way causal relationship between CO₂ emissions, NO 2, PM 2.5, and LE, an increase in PM₂.₅, NO₂, and CO carbon monoxide were associated with decreased LE, in line with [58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65]. Another one-way causal relationship between PM 2 , NO 2 , and CO carbon monoxide and PHE was detected; an increase in PM 2 , NO 2 , and CO carbon monoxide was associated with an increase in PHE.…”

Environmental health is one of the public health domains determined by physical, chemical, biological, social, and psychosocial factors. The current improvement and success in terms of technology, society, and the provision of multiple services after the Industrial Revolution were accompanied by a massive toll of air pollutants that were introduced and emitted into the air, causing global public health issues. It is crucial to understand how harmful air pollutants affect ecological health and the economic consequences of such effects. This study examined the relationship between Environmental Health assessed by CO Carbon Monoxide per capita (CO), Public Health Expenditures per capita (PHE), Toxic Air Pollution (PM₂.₅ and NO₂), and Life Expectancy (LE), using the novel statistical model Bootstrap Autoregressive Distributed Lag (BARDL), for period data from 1990 to 2022 in Saudi Arabia. Results showed no cointegrating relationship and a negative one-way causal relationship between CO, NO₂, PM₂.₅, and LE. Moreover, a positive two-way causal relationship was found between PHE and LE. Saudi Arabia initiated several strategies that aim to reduce environmental pollution and improve the overall quality of air, a step that will promote healthy living and have a vast positive economic impact in the long run.

“…More regions will be considered to examine further the importance of building environment and housing price to air pollution and human health in future research. In addition, this study has confirmed the moderating effects of built environment and housing prices on air pollution and health, but some other factors, such as climate change (19,46), that can also impact health were neglected. Numerous non-communicable diseases would be promoted and exacerbated by climate change's increased environmental exposures (47).…”

IntroductionResidential segregation have become a common phenomenon in China recently. Socioeconomically disadvantaged residents were more likely to live in communities with higher PM2.5 concentrations and poorer built environment, which may ultimately lead to a higher health risk, further exacerbating health inequalities. However, the reasons for health inequalities under residential segregation remain unclear.MethodsThis study quantified the built environment, air pollution, mortality rate and housing price at 1 km × 1 km grid scale. Moderating effect model, mediating effect model, moderated mediating effect model were used to progressively clarify the relationship between the four.ResultsResults show that, in terms of spatial distribution, the central area has high housing price with good built environment, low PM2.5 concentration and low mortality rate. While the suburban area has low housing price, poor built environment, high PM2.5 concentration and high mortality rate. Additionally, built environment can not only reduce health risks through moderating effect, but also affect health through the mediating effect of PM2.5. There is heterogeneity in moderating effect of built environment in different locations. Housing prices can moderate the effect of built environment on health. This study would offer important reference for urban planning to mitigate the effect of built environment inequalities on health inequalities in China.

“…Implementing low-carbon and end-of-pipe measures is expected to greatly decrease PM 2.5 concentration. 34 Under the 15D_Clean scenario, PM 2.5 concentration of the six provinces will be reduced by 10.6–16.6% and 15.1–23.7% in 2030 and 2050, respectively, compared with their respective levels in 2020 ( Figure S3 ). Furthermore, it is worth noting that evident spatiotemporal disparities exist in the PM 2.5 concentration reduction effect due to the carbon reduction policies and end-of-pipe technologies, respectively ( Figure 5 A).…”
