Passage:
When it comes to air pollution, the simple life isn't necessarily the safest. The most poisonous atmosphere in Asia is found not in rapidly modernizing cities like New Delhi or Beijing but inside the kitchens of homes in rural Asia . Millions of families in the countryside heat their abodes and cook with open fires using cheap fuels that belch carbon monoxide and other noxious fumes at level up to 500 times international safety limits. Rural women and children often spend hours each day in poorly, ventilated kitchens, breathing this putrid air. This is a problem that has been around forever, as long as humankind has existed, but it's been ignored, says Eva Rehfuess, a World Health Organization expert on indoor air pollution. If you walked into these kitchens, your eyes would start tearing and you would find it difficult to breathe. It's terrible.
