Low emission zones for better health : evidence from German hospitals
Pestel, Nico; Wozny, Florian - 2019
This paper studies health effects from restricting the access of high-emission vehicles to innercities by implementing low emission zones. For identification, we exploit variation in the timing and the spatial distribution of the introduction of new low emission zones across cities in Germany....
