WHO, US EPA, CDC and Others Have Colossal Errors in Air Pollution Risk Assessments

How can we bring this discovery to the attention of global health and environmental regulators who rely on outdated models?

My goal is to ensure that these findings are reviewed by institutions responsible for air quality standards and public health policy. However, as an independent researcher, I face challenges reaching decision-makers directly.

I would appreciate any advice on:

• How to effectively communicate with WHO, US EPA, CDC, and similar organizations.
• Strategies for getting this issue included in official guidelines or scientific discussions.
• Possible collaborations with institutions or scientists who could help validate and promote these findings.

Let’s start a serious discussion about how to correct decades-old errors in aerosol exposure modeling — because people’s lives depend on it.

Thank you in advance for your support and suggestions!
