Chapter 6 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for Figure 6.25 (v20221215)

Data for Figure 6.25 from Chapter 6 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). Figure 6.25 shows the effect of dedicated air pollution or climate policy on population-weighted PM2.5 (Fine particulate matter) concentrations (µg m-3) and share of population (%) exposed to different PM2.5 levels across 10 world regions. --------------------------------------------------- How to cite this dataset --------------------------------------------------- When citing this dataset, please include both the data citation below (under 'Citable as') and the following citation for the report component from which the figure originates: Szopa, S., V.
