This project evaluates the effect of the intensity of fuelwood use on the prevalence of cardio-respiratory diseases in Chile. By comparing the levels of PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 across Chilean communes that are environmentally saturated, we will evaluate the extent to which fuelwood use explain the prevalence of cardio-respiratory diseases, and how this relation changes when considering communes with other sources of pollution such as mining, industry and transport.
