Abstract

Attention to sustainability of developmental outcomes requires us to take into account the impact of growth on the environment.  The focus of many countries on achieving economic growth through industrialization leads to an increase in greenhouse gases. The resultant deterioration of air quality has a negative impact on environmental conditions and health of citizens. This can potentially lower life expectancy which if one of the important indicators of human development.

This article analyzes the impact of environmental pollution on human development indices of three groups of countries with different degrees of human development, using the panel data on life expectancy for the period 2000 to 2010.  We find that environmental pollution negatively impacts human development. We observe that the less developed a country is, the more it suffers from the negative effects of air pollution on human development
