WHO ranks Canada third on global air quality list
Another Monday, another reason to be jealous of the Mauritians. A new study by the World Health Organization has revealed that Canadians breath some pretty clean air, but not as clean as the lucky citizens of Mauritius and Estonia. Canada tied for third in the survey with Australia. Despite Canada’s high scores, the WHO still estimates that some 2,400 Canadians die from air-polution related illness every year.
