Scope

Purpose

The purpose is to assess health impacts of the energy production and consumption (including energy within products) in a city. The climate change and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are taken as a boundary condition. Hence, the climate change impacts are not on the focus, but rather the impacts of climate change abatement measures.

Boundaries

  • Spatial: One urban area. Helsinki Metropolitan Area is used as the practical example.
  • Temporal: Current situation - 20 years in the future.
  • Health impacts: All: mortality and morbidity. DALYs are used as the summary measure.
  • Population: The whole population in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area is considered as the active population (making societal and individual decisions). However, health impacts are considered anywhere in the world both downstream (impacts of pollutants from Helsinki) and upstream (health impacts of the production of products consumed in Helsinki).

Scenarios

Intended users

  • City-level policy-makers in all sectors in Helsinki and everywhere.
  • International policy-makers related to climate change.
  • General public.
