In terms of health effects, the guideline states that PM2.5 concentration of 10 is the lowest level at which total, cardiopulmonary and lung cancer mortality have been shown to increase with more than 95% confidence in response to long-term exposure to PM2.5. [2]
The CCME standard for particulate matter 2.5 (PM 2.5) as of 2015 is 28 μg/m 3 (calculated using the 3-year average of the annual 98th percentile of the daily 24-hr average concentrations) and 10 μg/m 3 (3-year average of annual mean). PM 2.5 standards will increase in stringency in 2020. [275]
