| For many years, the air pollution problem has been attracting public, government and scholars' attention since it can cause serious health problems. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set particle pollution (frequently referred to as particulate matter) (PM), ground-level ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and lead as `critical pollutants'. Among these six pollutants,(PM) and O3 are the ones of the most dangerous pollutants that the whole social society[2]. Especially, they have adverse e ects on public health, then lead to signi?cant economic loss[3, 4]. Some of the existing studies have evidenced that both short-term and long-term PM and O3 pollution exposure have a high correlation with respiratory and cardiovascular mortality and morbidity[5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. Apart from the six pollutants, CO2, one of the greenhouse gas, is another emission that is responsible for the globing warming. The main contributor to CO2 is fossil fuels burning for providing energy to transportation, industry, agriculture, commercial and residential etc. Therefore, the issues related to energy, pollution, and pollutionrelated health impacts have sparked a considerable attention from the citizens, the governments, and an amount of researchers. | |
