Air pollution causes premature mortality and increased morbidity in Denmark as well as worldwide. This review investigates how the climate changes contribute to these through e.g., wildfires and increased levels of ozone. Air pollution and climate gases share sources such as burning of fossil fuels and biomass and thus a reduction in the use of these will improve health, mitigate climate change, and reduce societal costs simultaneously. The costs of actions against climate change could thus be reduced.
