But climate policies carry an even larger cost in the developing world, where three billion people lack access to cheap and plentiful energy, perpetuating their poverty. They cook and keep warm by burning twigs and dung, producing indoor air pollution that causes 3.5 million deaths per year by far the world s biggest environmental problem.

Energy poverty is even more acute for the three billion people almost half of the world s population who burn dung, cardboard, and twigs indoors to cook and keep warm. The WHO estimates that while outdoor air pollution in developing country cities may be ten times higher than in advanced country cities, average indoor air pollution, caused by burning wood and dung, is a hundred times higher.

We live in a world where one in six deaths are caused by easily curable infectious diseases one in eight deaths stem from air pollution, mostly from cooking indoors with dung and twigs and billions of people live in abject poverty, with no electricity and little food.
