卫星地图没有显示出室内污染的危害。室内污染主要发生在低收入的农村地区,那里的居民主要用煤和木材等固体燃料做饭和取暖。
More than 1 billion children live in homes where solid fuels are used in this way, UNICEF said. For example, 81% of rural households in India use this kind of fuel because it's cheap and easily available.
联合国儿童基金会表示,超过10亿儿童生活在这样使用固体燃料的家庭。比如在印度,由于固体燃料既廉价又易得,81%的农村家庭都在用。
Air pollution is an especially serious threat for children because their lungs and immune systems are developing, the report said.
报告指出,因为儿童的肺部和免疫系统还在发育,所以空气污染对儿童的威胁最为严重。
Unborn children are also at risk. Studies show chronic exposure to high levels of particulate matter is associated with high rates of fetal loss, premature births and lower birthrates.
未出生的胎儿也受到空气污染的威胁。多项研究表明,长期处于颗粒物浓度较高的环境中会提高流产、早产和生育率下降的几率。
希望大家都能爱护环境。
