<h2>Health Impact of Future Fossil Fuel Use in Africa</h2>
<div class="entry">
<p>Africa is in a unique position to leapfrog dependence on fossil fuels and adopt the use of cleaner fuels for transport and electricity generation, but there are already ambitious plans to commission coal and natural gas power plants throughout the continent and dirty diesel vehicles and unregulated liquid fuels are making their way to Africa. We develop an inventory of these pollution sources for 2012 and 2030 and determine the future burden on health.</p>
