Abstract/Summary

The present summary report was drafted in response to the request of the Executive Body for the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution, as set out in the 2012–2013 workplan for the Implementation of the Convention (ECE/EB.AIR/109/Add.2, item 3.1, ongoing activities, para. (d) (iv)). It provides an analysis of how air pollution abatement benefits biodiversity and ecosystem services of benefit to human well-being. Some examples are provided to highlight the indirect benefits of air pollution control for human health and well-being via benefits for ecosystems. A more detailed assessment is available in the full report (informal document No. 1).
