Urban Cycling vs. PM2.5 Exposure: Does the Benefit Outweigh the Risk?
Preprint: study of 2 peoplePopulations
Abstract
Urban cycling is promoted as a sustainable transport mode and a means of increasing daily physical activity, but increased inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) may offset its health benefits. This secondary, scenario-based analysis assessed the balance between physical-activity benefits and PM2.
