Premature deaths due to exposure to fine particulate matter in Europe
The European Commission's zero pollution action plan (ZPAP) sets a target to reduce the health impacts of air pollution by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 2005. Between 2005 and 2023, the number of premature deaths in the EU-27 Member States attributable to PM 2.5 concentrations above 5µg/m 3 fell by 57%, achieving the target for 2023. Despite ongoing improvements, there were still 182,000 premature deaths attributable to PM 2.5 in the EU-27 in 2023.
