    I am just wondering where to find those 5%. Any one with a clue?

    Just look at the map on page 3 of the report.

    How is possible the Amazon rain forest has worst air quality that USA ??

    Just look at the map on page 3 of the report. It shows most of Africa, the Middle East, and southern Asia with the worst pollution. Countries at higher latitudes have much cleaner air. Canada, the United States (apart from the San Joaquin Valley and areas of the midwest), and large areas of Russia, Northern Europe, and Australia have pollution below the WHO guideline. Western Europe is pretty good, but Germany and northern France have particulate pollution higher than the guideline.

    You got modded down for describing the map, and accurately answering the guy's question? Funky.

    If you go to the website which publishes the data, you can find the health impact in Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY) which is a better than death alone.
    For instance, Bangladesh has 3000 DALY lost per 100,000 population due to particulates.
    Very interesting to look at the data:
