Wildfire Smoke Linked to Rise in Violent Assaults, New 11-Year Study Finds A new study spanning eleven years of data has revealed a clear link between wildfire smoke pollution and an increase in violent assaults in Seattle. Published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, these findings represent the first direct causal evidence that short-term exposure to wildfire-driven air pollution can increase interpersonal violence in an urban environment.  As wildfires intensify around the world due to climate change, Lion […] The post Wildfire Smoke Linked to Rise in Violent Assaults, New 11-Year Study Finds appeared first on IOP Publishing.
