Dataset
<p><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">The <strong>Mortality and Welfare Costs from Exposure to Environmental Risks</strong> database provides data on health impacts and welfare costs from exposure to environmentally-related risks. This dataset integrates data on mortality and Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) from the <em>Global Burden of Disease Study 2019</em> (GBD 2019), and quantifies welfare costs using a methodology adapted from the OECD (2017),<em> The Rising Cost of Ambient Air Pollution thus far in the 21st Century: Results from the BRIICS and the OECD Countries</em>. The database covers a wide range of environmental risks, including air pollution, climate-related threats, exposure to hazardous substances such as lead and radon, unsafe water and sanitation, environment-related occupational risks, and environment-related behavioral risks. The data are disaggregated by gender and age groups, providing a granular view of how these risks impact dimensions of the population.</span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;">Data source(s):</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"> </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: #182026;">GBD (2019), <em>Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 Results</em>, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, Seattle, United States. </span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"><a href="http://ghdx.healthdata.org/gbd-results-tool">http://ghdx.healthdata.org/gbd-results-tool</a></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: #182026;">GBD 2019 Risk Factor Collaborators (2020), <em>Global burden of 87 risk factors in 204 countries and territories, 1990-2019: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019</em>, The Lancet, Volume 396, Issue 10258, Pages 1223-1249. </span><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;"><a href="https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(20)30752-2">https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(20)30752-2</a><span style="color: #182026;">.
