Air pollution brings on heart and asthma attacks -- even at "safe" levels.

The findings come not from one but from three different studies. All link air pollution to death, disease, and/or injury.

'Safe' Air Pollution Harms Heart

Every increase in air pollution kills a few more people, find Demosthenes B. Panagiotakos, PhD, and colleagues at the University of Athens, Greece.

For every one-unit increase in carbon monoxide, the researchers suggest, there are two or more extra deaths each day.

"These health effects occur even at exposure levels below those stipulated in current air-quality standards," Panagiotakos says in a news release. "It is unclear whether a safe threshold exists."
Over a five-year period, the researchers collected daily values .

" WHAT'S BEING DONE ? "

Some 509 counties nationwide have been cited over the last year as non-attainment zones by the Environmental Protection Agency. The Clean Air Act requires states to develop a plan for reducing emissions in those areas, a prospect that creates uncertainty for businesses because they are likely to face restrictions on production and higher costs.
