New Study: Still no association between PM2.5, ozone and premature death
This is a new PM2/5/ozone analysis from Stan Young et al. It uses a different methodology from last year’s California study on the same California data. Same answer, though. And the data is available from the study authors — something the EPA-funded air pollution mafia refuses to share.
