Indonesia 没有 PM2.5 (µg/m3) 的国家标准

Fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5) shortens the average Indonesian resident’s life expectancy by 1.4 years, relative to what it would be if the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline (5 µg/m³) was met [1]. Some areas of Indonesia fare much worse than average, with air pollution shortening lives by 2.9 years in Deli Serdang, the most polluted regency/city in Indonesia.

KEY TAKE-AWAYS

  • Virtually all of Indonesia’s 272 million people live in areas where the annual average particulate pollution level exceeds the WHO guideline. More than half of the population lives in areas that exceed the country’s own national standard of 15 µg/m³.
  • Measured in terms of life expectancy, particulate pollution is among the greatest threats to human health in Indonesia, taking 1.4 years off the life of the average Indonesian resident. In contrast, diabetes and kidney infections reduce average life expectancy by 1.2 years, while respiratory infections reduce life expectancy by 1 year.
  • In the Special Capital Region of Jakarta—the most polluted province of Indonesia—10.7 million residents are on track to lose 2.4 years of life expectancy on average relative to the WHO guideline.[2]

Footnotes

[1] This data is based on the AQLI 2021 dataset. All annual average PM2.5 values (measured in micrograms per cubic meter: µg/m³) are population weighted.

The Index

The AQLI converts air pollution concentrations into their impact on life expectancy. From this, the public and policymakers alike can determine the benefits of air pollution policies in perhaps the most important measure that exists: longer lives.

Methodology

The AQLI estimates the relationship between air pollution and life expectancy, allowing users to view the gain in life expectancy they could experience if their community met World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines, national standards or some other standard.
