Abstract

Luftverschmutzung ist ein ernsthaftes Gesundheitsproblem. Feinstaub beeinträchtigt die Entwicklung der Atemwege – teils langfristig. Welche gesundheitlichen Folgen hat es, in schlechter Luft aufzuwachsen? Die schrittweise Einführung von Umweltzonen in deutschen Städten bietet die einmalige Gelegenheit, die Antwort auf diese Frage mit einem Preisschild zu versehen.
