Mobility design for mortality and morbidity
"Traffic pollution contributes to more than 1,800 premature deaths per year, study estimates. Vehicle pollution may contribute to more deaths each year than the number caused by road accidents."

Fossil fuel combustion kills
Quantifying Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Human Deaths to Guide Energy Policy
"This is the first review to analyze the substantial body of literature that enables approximate quantitative estimation of the human cost of carbon emissions, measured in lost human lives."
"When attempting to quantify future harms caused by carbon emissions and to set appropriate energy policies, it has been argued that the most important metric is the number of human deaths caused by climate change."
"If warming reaches or exceeds 2 °C this century, mainly richer humans will be responsible for killing roughly 1 billion mainly poorer humans through anthropogenic global warming, which is comparable with involuntary or negligent manslaughter."
"Despite repeated and ever more serious warnings from the scientific community, global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere continue to increase as fossil fuel combustion increases."
"Measuring carbon emissions in human lives not only makes the numbers easier to understand for nonexperts but also clarifies energy policy priorities: clearly, allowing a policy to cause manslaughter is intuitively unacceptable."

Along with smoking, alcohol abuse, and lack of physical activity, research finds that the following factors also increase the risk of premature death among older adults: 1. recent financial difficulties, unemployment history, 2. childhood trauma, divorce history, and 3. negative outlook, poor self-esteem.
