NYC Climate Budgeting Report: Avoided Health Events By NTA (Archived)

The Mayor’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) obtained the health events avoided value through collaboration with the New York City (NYC) Health Department. The reductions in PM2.5 are the same reductions found in the "Forecasted Emissions and PM2.5 Reductions from City Actions" dataset.

This dataset uses the same data included in the "Forecasted Avoided Health Events" , the main difference is that this dataset is mapped geographically. For any additional detail about PM2.5, refer to the "Impact of Fossil Fuel Use on Air Quality and Health" sub-section of the FY25 New York City Climate Budgeting publication (nyc.gov/assets/omb/downloads/pdf/exec24-nyccb.pdf).
