Environmental Health : Costs of Environmental Health Damage And Net Benefits of Priority Interventions A Contribution to the Country Environmental Analysis for the Philippines (Part 1) by Agustin L. Arcenas World Bank CEA Workshop, June 16-17, 2008
3
Environmental Health - Areas of Concern Outdoor Air Pollution (OAP) Indoor Air Pollution (IAP) Water Pollution, Sanitation and Hygiene (WSH)
4
Basic Outline of the Study (for each area of concern) I. The basic issues and state of the environment II. Level of exposure to pollutants and, sanitation and hygiene problems in the Philippines III. Morbidity Incidence IV. Economic cost of Morbidity V. Mortality Incidence due to environment VI. Economic cost of mortality VII. Suggested policy interventions VIII. Economic evaluation of policy interventions
5
How the study was done… Calculate the proportion of total cases of illnesses that are attributable to pollution, sanitation and hygiene Using WHO and Philippine data, determine the cost of treatment and foregone income from illnesses and premature deaths Aggregate the economic costs and values from these calculations
6
Total Economic Costs of Environmental Health Problems Total: PhP 9 billion
7
Morbidity-Mortality shares
8
The Economic Costs of Illnesses caused by Outdoor Air Pollution

Sources of PM emissions SectorAverage Emissions (tons/year) % of Total Stationary Sources1,0835.46 Mobile Sources16,72584.34 Households180.09 Solid Waste Burning2,00510.11 TOTAL19,831100 Source: Monitoring Report, 2004
10
What we know so far… There has been a drop in PM emissions in Metro Manila since 2003 The number of vehicles in the country is growing Diesel contributes more to PM than gasoline Main source of PM emissions in the country – 2 stroke-tricycles The bulk of vehicles in the country are the tricycles followed by utility vehicles
11
PM Emissions from Mobile Sources, 2006
12
Morbidity Cases - OAP Total: 119,080
13
Costs to Society of OAP-related Illnesses Total: PhP 1.9 billion
14
Costs to Households of Treatment - OAP, 2003 Total: PhP 896 million
15
Foregone Income due to OAP-related Illnesses Total: PhP 118 million
16
Cost of Premature Deaths due to OAP, 2003 Total: PhP 697 million
17
Potential Interventions to curb OAP Inspection and maintenance (I/M) programs Installation of pollution control devices Rehabilitation of Current Traffic Management System Investments in Additional Mass Transport System
18
The Economic Costs of Illnesses caused by Indoor Air Pollution
19

20
Households Exposed to Indoor Air Pollution (in %)
21
Morbidity Cases - IAP Total: 114,665
22
Costs to Society of IAP-related Illnesses Total: PhP 2.3 billion
23
Costs to Households of Treatment - IAP, 2003 Total: PhP 774 million
24
Foregone Income due to IAP-Illnesses, 2003 Total: PhP 82 million
25
Cost of Premature Deaths due to IAP, 2003 Total: PhP 1.4 billion
26
Potential Interventions to curb impacts of IAP Promote improved household living environment (improved ventilation) Promote use of improved stoves Effect changes in cooking practices

28
The Economic Costs of Water Pollution, Sanitation and Hygiene Issues
29
Household Access to Improved Water Supply and Sanitation, 2003 (National)
30
Morbidity Cases - WSH Total: 488,425
31
Costs to Society of WSH-related Illnesses Total: PhP 4.9 billion
32
Costs to Households of Treatment - WSH, 2003 Total: PhP 3.0 Billion
33
Foregone Income due to Illnesses from WSH, 2003 Total: PhP 465 million
34
Costs of Premature Deaths due to WSH, 2003 Total: PhP 933 million
35
Potential Interventions to eliminate illnesses from WSH Water Sanitation and Hygiene Improved water supply and quality Hygiene Promotion Construction of Sanitation Facilities (i.e. Latrines)
