A modest 10% reduction in energy consumption from wealthier urban households, which can be achieved from energy conservation and the adoption of efficient power sources, can reduce particulate pollution by 7.1 %, 8.4 %, and 6.2 % in Delhi, Coimbatore, and Rajkot respectively.

In a comparative analysis aimed at exploring the air pollution levels in rural areas and the urban areas, it is found that there is little difference in concentration levels of air pollutants in the two brackets. The report highlighted that the reliance on solid fuels for domestic use is a major factor behind the high pollution levels in the rural hinterland.

In the Indo-Gangetic plains of Northern India, 510 million residents, nearly 40% of India’s population, are on track to lose 7.6 years of life expectancy on average, if current pollution levels persist, warns a new study. Since 2013, about 44% of the world’s increase in pollution has come from India.

A recent study undertaken in West Bengal by Climate Trends and IIT Delhi shows a higher prevalence of upper and lower respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular problems as a result of long and long and short term exposures to air pollutants. Women in the state's rural areas were more vulnerable to it.
