Air pollution linked to suicidal thoughts
A new study has shown that exposure to air pollutants such as fine particles and nitrogen dioxide is associated with an increased risk of suicide and suicidal thoughts, with findings highlighting the importance of including environmental health in suicide prevention efforts. While the results suggest that air pollution may be a contributing factor, experts emphasized that the study does not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship, and that other social and health factors also play a significant role. Suicide remains a major cause of death worldwide, claiming the lives of more than 720,000 people annually.
