Although deaths from pollution sources associated with extreme poverty (such as indoor air pollution and water pollution) have decreased, these reductions have been offset by deaths from industrial pollution (such as ambient air pollution and chemical pollution) .

Algeria banned lead in petrol in 2021. It is the last country to do so. But mainly due to uncontrolled recycling of lead-acid batteries and e-waste, people are exposed to the toxic substance. In most poor countries, the number of such deaths is increasing rapidly. Richard Fuller said that the cause of almost all early deaths from exposure to lead is heart disease, which hardens the arteries. But high levels of lead in the blood are estimated to affect millions of children. It also impairs brain development and is associated with severe loss of cognitive function.
