Destroying Lives and Evidenced in Plain Sight: The Intertwined Crises of Climate Change, Lack of Access to Clean Energy and Air Pollution -- Identifying the Locus for Global Action on Clean Energy and Climate Change within the UN: Confronting Segregated Global Goals and Partnership Silos -- Looking Beyond the Global Climate Change Negotiations Silo: Examining UN Climate Change Outcomes for Linked Action on Clean Air and Clean Energy for All -- On the Frontlines for Clean Air and Climate Action: Role of Cities and India in Mitigating PM Pollution -- The Urgency of Curbing SLCPs: Why Reducing BC Emissions Matters -- The Nexus between Mitigating Air Pollution and Climate Change is Crucial: Time to Stop Knuckle-dragging, Break Global Policy Silos and Spur NNSAS.

Summary: "Anthropogenic climate change is a globally recognized threat multiplier. Yet, decades of intergovernmental negotiations have failed to curb toxic levels of fossil fuel energy-related air pollution which the World Health Organization (WHO) has identified as the world's largest, single environmental health risk. Lying in plain view are the troubling truths about the morbidity and ill-health burdens associated with anthropogenic climate change that are borne by those who have done the least to contribute to per capita emissions of greenhouse gas emissions. Ignoring the nexus between air pollution, lack of access to clean energy and climate adversities represents a collective failure of the UN's ambitious, universally agreed upon 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda (SDA) which pledged 'to leave no one behind'."--Back cover
