"More than one third of the world's population—2.9 billion people—still burns wood, charcoal and dung indoors to keep warm and cook food. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 4.3 million people in 2012 lost their lives due to indoor air pollution. Compare these figures to the losses from global warming. The new report from the UN Climate Panel recognizes that 'at present the worldwide burden of human ill-health from climate change is relatively small compared with effects of other stressors.' Estimates from the WHO and others suggest that between 30 and 150 times more people are killed due to indoor air pollution than global warming. Yet, the latter dominates the headlines." Bjorn Lomborg
