Jae-yeon (Ajou University School of Medicine, Co-representative of the Korean Federation for Environmental Movements), author of “Oppose a Society That Sells Air,” has been consistently researching air pollution issues, including fine dust, since publishing his doctoral thesis analyzing data on fine dust in Seoul in 1988, while also continuing his environmental activism for over 30 years.\u003cbr\u003e The author points out that government ministries, the media, academia, and businesses have caused or contributed to this phenomenon, and likens the belief in and spread of misinformation to the 'geocentric theory' of fine dust.\u003cbr\u003e Companies are using \"fear marketing\" to encourage people to protect themselves, and academia is focusing on developing

approaches misconceptions about fine dust based on concrete data and verified materials, while also viewing the series of situations surrounding \"fine dust\" as a social phenomenon and examining how false information and fake news disguised as science are produced and spread.\u003cbr\u003e At the same time, it specifically suggests what needs to be done now to solve the problem of fine dust

This only exacerbates policy confusion and hinders problem solving.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.28~29\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A frequently cited figure to emphasize the severity of the health damage caused by fine dust pollution is that the number of premature deaths due to fine dust exceeds 10,000 per year.\u003cbr\u003e It is also added that “China has over a million people.” \u003cbr\u003e‘Early death due to fine dust’ does not mean that fine dust was recorded as the cause of death on the death certificate or that it was individually diagnosed.\u003cbr\u003e The number of premature deaths due to fine dust is a statistically estimated figure using several variables, such as fine dust pollution level and mortality rate by disease.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, if it is mistaken for the actual number of deaths or is misused without understanding its meaning, misunderstandings or errors may occur.\u003cbr\u003e This figure was developed to evaluate the health, economic, and social effects of reducing fine dust.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.59\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Because fine dust is generated from heating, cooking, transportation, industry, and construction, there is virtually no way for countries with severe pollution to meet WHO standards in the short term. \u003cbr\u003eHistorical experience has shown us that the only practical and effective way to achieve this is to set standards that can be achieved through diligent effort, appropriate to one's circumstances, and then, once that goal is achieved, to strengthen the standards again and continue to improve them.\u003cbr\u003e The World Health Organization's guidelines present the most ideal values ​​from a health perspective, without any consideration of economic, social, or technological conditions.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, it is very difficult to achieve this guideline.\u003cbr\u003e In most countries, the call to adopt this as an environmental standard is nothing more than an empty slogan.\u003cbr\u003e The World Health Organization is also well aware of this fact, and so it presents several interim goals for each stage along with its guidelines.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.90~92\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The 'bad' level, which is considered to affect the general public, is 255㎍\/㎥ or higher in the US, which is more than three times the 'bad' level standard in Korea, which is 81㎍\/㎥. \u003cbr\u003eThe standards for determining PM10 concentration in Korea and the United States are so different that it is difficult to understand with common sense, which can lead to absurd situations.\u003cbr\u003e Fine dust caused by natural phenomena such as yellow dust has relatively large particles, so even if the PM10 concentration increases significantly, PM2.5 does not increase much.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, even when light yellow dust occurs, the PM2.5 standard often remains in the low concentration range of 'normal' or 'bad'.\u003cbr\u003e Even if the PM10 concentration on a day like this rises to an average of 150㎍\/㎥ per day, it is considered 'normal' by American standards, but in our country, they report it as if it is 'very bad' and use all sorts of scary expressions to make it seem like there is chaos.\u003cbr\u003e Our country has an average annual fine dust pollution level more than twice that of the United States, and only adopted the annual average standard earlier this year, which the United States had strengthened long ago. \u003cbr\u003eStill, it is difficult to understand the basis for setting the daily average standard so much higher than that of the United States.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.102~103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If we believe there is nothing we can do to reduce fine dust, anxiety and anger will grow, and we will have no choice but to find our own way.\u003cbr\u003e With the constant stream of media interviews with experts who incite and promote fear of fine dust, like adding fuel to the fire, people have come to believe that even going outside can cause serious problems.\u003cbr\u003e It is only natural that people are trying to find ways to survive by wearing masks and buying air purifiers.\u003cbr\u003e The government and experts' recommendations for mask-wearing, combined with promotional campaigns by air purifier companies, have led to a massive surge in sales for related industries.\u003cbr\u003e This phenomenon immediately sparked a trend of actively using fine dust in all other commercial advertisements and promotions. \u003cbr\u003eThe so-called golden age of fine dust fear marketing has arrived.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e They say that reducing domestic fine dust emissions is useless because fine dust from China is the cause of the problem, but this argument goes against basic common sense.\u003cbr\u003e Even those who claim that fine dust from China has an absolute impact would probably cover their noses and avoid a passing car spewing out exhaust fumes.\u003cbr\u003e There are probably a significant number of residents who suffer from air pollutants emitted from factories around their residential areas.\u003cbr\u003e It is a fact that is very clear from experience that the pollution that occurs around us has the greatest negative impact on us.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, reducing the amount of fine dust generated domestically will have an immediate positive effect on us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There is also evidence that during the period when we stopped blaming China and worked hard to reduce our internal pollutants, fine dust pollution levels actually improved significantly. \u003cbr\u003eAn analysis of Seoul City data shows that during periods when efforts were made to actively reduce fine dust emissions, fine dust pollution levels significantly improved.\u003cbr\u003e Although the performance each year is slightly uneven due to the influence of weather conditions, the improvement has been exactly equivalent to the reduction rate of fine dust emissions over the past 10 years.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.142~143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Even in the field of air pollution, research on calculating the contribution of fine dust from China, for example, is quite difficult.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, without China's cooperation, it is frustrating but understandable that the Ministry of Environment and the National Institute of Environmental Research are causing confusion in this field and have yet to produce reliable results.\u003cbr\u003e However, the trend of changes in air pollution can be clearly explained with relatively simple statistics.\u003cbr\u003e Since the automatic air pollution monitoring network began operating in 1983, air pollution data collection has been ongoing for a whopping 35 years. \u003cbr\u003eIf so, the government can clearly inform the public that the current level of fine dust pollution in our country is not the worst ever.\u003cbr\u003e However, the Vice Minister of Environment and all public officials are silent about the misunderstandings of our people, evading and taking no action, perhaps to avoid being criticized.\u003cbr\u003e Because of this, when environmental groups and some journalists tell the truth that fine dust pollution levels are lower now than in the past, they are subject to insults such as, “Are you a Chinese spy?” and “How much money did you receive from China?”\u003cbr\u003e It is difficult to understand how the Ministry of Environment can solve the fine dust problem when it is so cowardly and incompetent that it cannot even explain basic facts about fine dust to the public.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.241~242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Internationally, medical and health government agencies are cautioning against wearing masks when fine dust pollution occurs, rather than recommending it. \u003cbr\u003eThe American Thoracic Society, which was founded in 1905 and has over 15,000 physicians and scientists as members, clearly states in its guidelines that wearing protective masks can cause physical strain by making it harder for people to breathe, increase breathing frequency by reducing tidal volume, reduce ventilation in the alveoli and lungs, and possibly even cause adverse effects such as reduced cardiac output.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e However, it is impossible to reduce the pollution level by one-third to 100㎍\/㎥ on a day when the concentration of fine dust is 150㎍\/㎥, even if it means incurring enormous costs and inconveniences.\u003cbr\u003e This is a clear fact not only in this case of Seoul, but also in all cases to date.\u003cbr\u003e On the other hand, we have experienced that reducing the annual average pollution level by not only 1㎍\/㎥ but also more is possible, and this has been proven in numerous cities in advanced countries. \u003cbr\u003eSouth Korea has tens of millions of cars on the road and consumes a huge amount of fossil fuels, with per

It is a public program that anyone can easily download and use.\u003cbr\u003e The problem is securing the right input data, but if researchers arbitrarily select or modify input variables, they can produce any desired results.\u003cbr\u003e Citing the saying, “Garbage in, garbage out,” the author raises issues with the data provided by the Ministry of Environment.\u003cbr\u003e In fact, the Ministry of Environment stated in its submission to the National Assembly audit that the modeling results they were publishing were calculated using estimates due to the lack of data on sources of fine dust in China.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe author states that the most important input data for air quality modeling are pollutant source data and meteorological data, and that joint research with neighboring countries is inevitable to quantitatively assess the impact on neighboring countries.\u003cbr\u003e What I am saying is that we need a more intelligent and rational environmental diplomacy.\u003cbr\u003e At the same time, the way governments and businesses shirk their responsibilities hides what we can do now, including regulations to reduce fine dust.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhy Air Became a Personal Responsibility\u003cbr\u003e : For the air to belong to everyone\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e So, what can we do to reduce air pollution, including fine dust? The author argues that the health effects of air pollution are not limited to short-term, high-concentration exposure, but also occur over long periods of time. \u003cbr\u003eThere are long-term standards (annual average) and short-term standards (daily average) established, but which of the two standards requires more attention may vary depending on the level of pollution and the circumstances of each country or city.\u003cbr\u003e The authors say that in cities where the average annual pollution level is less than 50㎍\/㎥, the pollution level may increase significantly on a particular day to around 200㎍\/㎥, and that short-term exposure at this level does not cause any significant health problems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author says that most fine dust measures, such as mask distribution and vehicle quota system, are short-term measures for high-concentration pollution, and that since the average annual fine dust pollution level in most cities in Korea is less than 50㎍\/㎥, long-term measures to reduce normal pollution are needed rather than short-term measures for high-concentration pollution. \u003cbr\u003eIt also suggests ways to address the problems with existing policies and the direction in which they should proceed, such as reducing fuel consumption, replacing with fuel that produces less fine dust, replacing or closing down aging facilities or equipment, or using dust collectors to prevent pollutants from being emitted into the atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003e Air is a condition of life that everyone should naturally enjoy, and that is why air pollution must be continuously improved by society, not by individuals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It also corrects misconceptions and claims, such as the change in the location of air pollution monitoring stations, and examines how cities once considered the most polluted, such as New York and London, became clean cities, suggesting alternatives.\u003cbr\u003e Helps understanding through concrete visual aids such as graphs, tables, and pictures. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 14, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n \u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e- \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 324 pages | 405g | 138*200*22mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9788962622805\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8962622807 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894504620074,"sku":"105942","price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/9e49840f345c2dd6ae5919ae6c837626.jpg?v=1765436315","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/105942","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
