Primary air pollutants

Which countries have the dirtiest air, and how much does it affect the death rate?
What primary air pollutants are we forced to inhale with urban smog? Having asked these eco-questions, we made an infographic in Tableau.

The infographics were created using WHO global reports, local resources and networks, and measurements collected by the Global Burden of Disease project.

US air pollution data

One of the sources we used is AirNow, source for air quality data.
AirNow reports air quality using the official US Air Quality Index (AQI), a color-coded system designed to indicate whether the air quality is healthy or unhealthy. Knowing the AQI in your area allows you to take steps to protect your health.

AirNow is a partnership involving the US Environmental Protection Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Park Service, NASA, Centers for Disease Control, and various tribal, state, and local air quality agencies.
