It just doesn’t make sense intuitively to me. This feels more like an example to show correlation does not equal causation. So what if the violent crime is higher in highly polluted areas? How is that information useful for anything?
- bulletsvshumans 7y agoWell, for starters, it might incentivize governments that want to reduce crime to reduce pollution.

If it's harder to breathe, less oxygen is getting to your brain, and that's never good. While it may not be life-threatening or anything, it might make you more irritable. Just constantly slightly fatigued and cranky. It takes less to set you off.
