It is an underappreciated part of the discussion. Fighting climate change also reduces the emission of contaminants to the air that we breath. Even if climate change were not happening, we would have to reduce pollution anyway.
I visited China a few years ago, the touristic potential is limitless, it has so many great cities to visit, natural parks, rivers, and many more. But, the air is so polluted that it is difficult to enjoy any of it.
There are a million reasons to reduce pollution, and only a very bad one to not do it.

Yes, and it's also the number one pollutant in your neighborhood if anyone heats like that. Decarbonization must be a requirement as well.
