Rising wildfire smoke in the US offsets improvements in prenatal health
Wildfires are well-known health risks. Now, in a new Frontiers in Environmental Health study, researchers in the US have – for the first time – evaluated how prenatal PM2.5 exposure has changed over space and time on a national scale, and what role wildfires play in shaping these trends. We show that prenatal exposure to PM2.5 in the US declined substantially between 2003 and 2019, reflecting major improvements in air quality. At the same time, the contribution of wildfire smoke to prenatal PM2.5 exposure has more than doubled. By 2019, wildfire smoke had become the dominant contributor to high-pollution days experienced during pregnancy in the US." Menglu Liang, first author, assistant clinical professor, University of Maryland Rising wildfire pollution The team ran two computer models to simulate air pollution. The first run included human and natural sources of PM2.5 pollution; including cars, industry output, and fires. In the second run all fire-related pollution was removed. The difference was the estimate for how much PM2.5 pollution was due to wildfires. The researchers also determined on how many days unborn babies were exposed to PM2.5 pollution exceeding 35 micrograms of particles per cubic meter (exceedance days). Levels beyond this value are considered...
