I really doubt that’s true. Deaths from air pollution are probably being vastly undercounted here.
Air quality in the capital area is comparable to the industrial heartland of China during a significant part of the year.

Tell that to Mr. Gísli Marteinn.

Hmm, maybe. If you live on Hverfisgata and have your window open you’ll quickly see an accumulation of smog, dust, and particulates. One volcano or a new years celebration and things aren’t looking too good.
We’re less than half a million but get around 2 million people to the country a year. The air quality is probably just not that bad because of how few we are – but that doesn’t mean that we’re doing particularly well if the status quo were to remain as we scale upwards.
