Household Level Pollution in India: Patterns and Projections
Published By: MSE on eSS | Published Date: June, 14 , 2011This study
analyses the pollution-income relationship (for both local and global
pollution), separately across rural and urban households in India based
on unit record data on fuel consumption obtained through National
Sample Survey data for 2004-05. Based on the estimated relationship,
the study makes an attempt to project household level pollution for 2026.
The study further analyzes the health burden and greenhouse gas
emissions under various policy scenarios including deeper penetration of
clean fuels and wider utilization of improved cook stoves. [Working Paper No. 58/2011]. URL:[http://www.mse.ac.in/pub/WORKING%20PAPER%2058.pdf].
