From your link: > At present, outdoor air pollution kills in excess of 3 million people every year, and automobile exhaust is a significant part of the problem. Are you talking about this bit? > the harmful nitrogen oxides emitted by Volkswagen’s affected diesel vehicles – which the US Environmental Agency claims were 40 times higher than the legal level – could be responsible for as many as 106 deaths in the US between 2009 and 2015. That's the US, where diesel is not as common as Europe. Your link says that: > From a global perspective, the actual death toll could be much higher.
